Matty's Bocanegra

[Mathewbailes11]

Hi Finally got round to making a thread for my baby hahah.



So I've had the car about 2 month now and i absolutely love everything about it!

Only has 31k miles on and drives lovely. Its currently on AP coilovers and has upgraded brakes (brembos). Side skirts and rear spoiler



Few things I want doing to it though..



-New exhaust (unsure on what make yet)



-New Alloys (mine are curbed of last owner. Unsure on what type)



-Coils taking off for just lowering spring



-Rear diffuser carbon dipped (got the idea from a fellow Bocanegra owner )



-Front bumper splitter



-Various other little things







Also back bumper is getting resprayed next week due to the paint coming off on the sill.

When I got the car. The drive back from Scotland in the rain made the car minging

Looking good mate! How far did you drive to pick the car up?

 

[Mathewbailes11]

Cheers! And I can't remember.. I live in Sunderland and had to pick it from just outside Glasgow, quite a journey

Wow that's some miles! Worth it though? I'm looking at buying a white cupra this weekend that's a 3 hour drive away, not sure though!!

I've been after one for a few months now! Just sceptical about buying one as I'm sure you've heard the stories, did you buy private or from a dealer ship

 

[Mathewbailes11]

Private mate, the lad I bought it off only sold it because he went to the Audi garage with his Mrs to get her A1 and ended up buying and brand new s3.

Nice to see another Bocanegra in person, we talked for about 2 hours about our cars haha. Nice to compare differences.. I learned my car has a Cupra steering wheel on which is very strange.

Anyway was nice meeting up Ash. Love your boc!

UPDATE
Just ordered my new exhaust. Went for a Cobra cat back for now. Probably end up buying the de-cat in the near future

Also some more photos I've taking over the past few weeks

Looks wicked! What's the ride like on the coilovers? Looks like the perfect height, any reason your wanting to change over to lowering springs or is it just for practicality?

@DJN I'm not now mate, I like the look of it too much on coils to heighten it hahah. And ride is about hard but it's what's expected on coilovers
