So, what did you buy for your car this month?

[Ste133]

As per the title, what did you buy for your car this month?

- New air fresheners (I like it when my car smells good)
- New CD case to hold random CD's that I never use
- First Aid kit and an emergency hammer thing
- Bluetooth OBD connector (lost my old one) so I can use my Torque app
- Plenty of vPower

I've only just bought my S3 so I'm sure I will have a few bits to add here and there.

Nice good thread too! Air fresheners are absolutely critical. I bought some Poorboys air fresheners recently and they were a huge let down.

I have bought new front arms, new wheels, caps and stickers for the wheels, pressed plates, surrounds for pressed plates, sub and enclosure, new scuttle, tyre dressing applicators, and some blue gloves (and diesel, of course).

My car is currently sat on axle stands turboless (among other bits) ready and waiting for this bad boy... I'm at a wedding this weekend but I hope to have her all back in one piece next weekend, but it's gonna be tight!

Then up to bills for mapping on September 11th. . . Can't ****** wait, just want it now NOW NOOOOOOOOWWWW!

Nice work Andrew... I ride an olskool orange jump frame surrounded by loads of cool bit. Also LOVE it!



The frames probs about 10 years (or more) older than your's... Still goin strong tho, which is a massive credit considering the way I ride it! lol

 

[eightfour7two]

Not sure if this counts, but I bought the 3M headlight restoration kit for the S3. Results have been pretty good!

 

[VAG-Slag]

Sweet man, this is something I need to do! . . Again :-(

Think my lights may have had it tho, the hazing looks pretty deep worth another try tho!

Thanks for the heads up, will try and get in touch with him soon to see whats happening. I'm not gonna lie, I'm slightly jealous you've already got one! You must be buzzing with anticipation to get it all done!

[mattf1000]

17" mk1 tt ronals freshly refurbished on Bridgestone tyres. New top mounts and full service including a pollen filter get me lol on my 1.9 tdi. Then spent hours levelling it all up and raising it so the ****** arb didn't rub on the drive shaft. Still all cured handles better than I could of hope happy days

Fill ya boots mate, when I see a decent bike envy is the last thing I feel as I know how much they must have spent on it! . . Bang for buck I don't think it gets much better than my 10 year old retro ride! :thumbsup:
