205 is running good atm! 8)

Only really a few cosmetics to sort, some of which are OCD, some of which are more obvious. Been wanting to refurb the alloys for years, but I haven't worn the tyres out yet! Bought a new set of tyres years ago, they are safely stored in the warm and dry out the daylight, Glen is teasing me with Speedline SL434s, they'd look fricking awesome. If I put the aftermarket wheels on (wrapped in my new tyres) I'd definitely get the factory alloys refurbished and keep them for originality. Mines completely original down to the mud flaps and the Clarion tape deck, not track prepared or anything like Sonnys little blue menace!

I did have crazy mad thoughts about buying a second 205 with GTi-6 converstion, brakes, cage, seats, harnesses etc etc.....

However thats definitely a pipedream for now!

Hello all.

I missed this thread originally.

I have been oggling RS4s and the two R8s all day today, and hopefully some tomorrow, too!

I met DK and the chap with the white R8 V10 - sorry I have forgotten your name already!
Also chatted with the owner of a Mugello blue b7 RS4 Avant and saw a black Avant lapping.
Even spoke to another owner who owned a Sprint RS4 saloon like mine, although he has been lapping in a Clio track car.

Anyway, I have been driving my B7 RS4 Saloon with "GEE"on the plate. Great to some of you and will hopefully meet a few more tomorrow! :thumbs:
