Congratulations you've bought a stunner (although I take it Jim told you about all the rust he covered up with that vinyl wrap...)

Last time I heard it, car alarms went off!

Chris, Billy, thanks guys

Sonny, im definately up for a meet, not really thought about tracking the car yet, but not written off letting her loose either! The car is certainly ready for the track, handles and goes like an absolute dream

Love how deep they are. Are they not BBS?

I need sooooooooo badly...so would they defo not fit a B7?
LOL!

There is no way, i already looked into it, both the BBS CHs and Dymags, neither would have worked unfortunately, for the moment with the spacers the car looks perfect... for the moment :wink:

I trust the paintwork to be a minter under their knowing Jim

I can believe the car alarms too, wouldn't even have to try too hard, sound f'in mental as mentioned by d_k!

Everything worked out well Carl, B5 was sold to help me purchase my place, then I set my sights on Jim's B7, but was in no position to take her off his hands at that point, and Jim, thankfully was more than happy to wait... and here we are!

I think i'm done before i've even started with this one Sonny, (famous last words) the reason i was so determined to purchase Jims' RS was that he had already done all the leg work, not to mention all the £££ spent on it!
I know exactly how much of a hit the old wallet takes with these cars, and you know the saying, once you mod...

I have a couple of additional cosmetic mods in mind for down the line, other than that i am a very happy chappy :lol:

IMHO neither is "better" because they are both so different.

Thats a very nice looking B7. I saw a very similar looking car at the petrol station at the top of the M606 in bradford a couple of months ago.
