It's a VAG diesel, the only thing it's destroying is the environment.

well I dropped the car off at the refurb place today. I ended up going for the gun metal, but with a bit of a twist. They had a gun metal colour with a sparkle effect to it, kinda like a pearlesant finish. I went for that, costs a little more, £69 a wheel instead of £60 a wheel.

I am collecting the car at 4:30pm tomorrow once its all done, I'm so excited!

Prodrive caps on fake Prodrive wheels

Like sticking STI badges and high rise spoilers on WRX's.
