Awesome car, awesome colour. Don't think I'd be brave enough to go for that colour - but I like it :thumbsup:

gorgeous looking car Lauryn! if i was a little braver when i got mine i would have gone solar but i bottled and went black lol
agreed with Ash some old and new shots would be good, maybe some rolling shots like you sig?
anyway enjoy as they are great cars!
You two are boring
dont blame me, blame my ex lol
my car wont stay phantom forever... but going solar im not sure... dont think i need too much attention drawn to me given the way i drive it lol
I still love my 8L as well, I haven't sold it yet!
Love solar S3's, really is a tidy colour. Also have a soft spot for 8L's great design, a real pity they didn't flare the rear arches on the 8P but alas lol... Very nice choices of cars n colours, facelift tail lights on the new one ftw
Maybe I'm just being paranoid!
Amazing colour!
Really really like it,
You gotta keep the 8L
Gotta say I agree dude.. The arches on me 8l are something I miss massively, it makes the front end look wide and mean coming towards you, the bugatti style front grill on the 8p is loads nicer tho, so tradeoff I guess?Love solar S3's, really is a tidy colour.

There's so many scaredy cats on this thread LOL!
Very nice Lauryn. I've followed your 8L thread on SVAG for a while now and I know how much you love the 8L, so must've been hard to make the decision. Indeed, Solar is one of those colours you either love or hate, but good on you for taking it on.
They do look good in the flesh, always catches your eye Solar. Look forward to your write up on the little tweaks.
MattAndrew has his BBS CH Blacks up for sale. Maybe a little predictable, but it works so, so well. That or Luke's S6's in gunmetal, ooohhhh, tidy.

That's a tasty S3 BE Rico
Oh dear haha, I hope it's a Recaro one lol.Cheers fella. Got it the way I want it finally only to be looking to change it! Like Lauryn, a positive change in circumstances and therefore why not treat ourselves. I just hope there's enough room in the back for the baby seat.
congrats on an awesome ride lauryn!
Thank you! There was an Imola Yellow S3 in Leeds with the buckets etc I was going to go look at but I settled for the orange in the end. I like my bright colours lol. Would you recommend the springs you fitted to yours? I had coilovers on my old Lupo and settled for Eibach springs on my 8L S3, just wondering if the H&R springs are decent on the 8P?
Thanks
I wasnt 100% at the beginning if I'm honest but now I'm really happy with it, looking out the window like a creep checking its still there sometimes and other times just admiring it, sad
I did love my 8L so I think I made the right decision, I bought that for myself in August 09 and now that I've left uni and gone back into full time employment I think the time was right to upgrade I would have liked Sprint Blue like yours but a friend has one and I didnt really want to have owned a blue 8L and a blue 8P, its nice to have a change.
I'm not really convinced about anything other than silver wheels on it, maybe I'm being timid (funny since I own a bright orange car lol) but I think black on orange or anthractive orange might just be a little too much...
Someone locally and also on Svag has bought the 8L btw so you will still see it, I'm sure he will keep it mint
Ash what have I said about you putting porn up haha
yeah, i know what you mean about the bright colours..
i feel the H&R springs give a really really hard ride!
my car isn't a daily driver so i don't mind at all..
i didn't do the shocks yet, thinking of going for the koni sport shocks.
coilovers doesn't work for me as my driveway has an incline so getting in an out with
just the H&Rs is already a mission
i reckon if coilies is in your budget, go for it!!!
Black or Anthracite would look sweet and different alloys. Some inspiration
Good lad lol
Sorry i'll try to behave
Ash what have I said about you putting porn up haha
I have H&Rs with stock dampers and the ride very quickly becomes pretty poor, ( even compared to sh!tty stock). Drop looks good but uprated dampers are a must, with H&Rs springs only damping control is poor.
Is anyone good with photoshop etc? I'm going to assign one of my private plates on to the car but can't decide whether or not to stick with S3 EPO or put my 'name' plate on which is L222RYN
I'm afraid I dont have that kind of money! lol
