Two words come to mind, each starting with the letter "S".

It is fun though! :evilgrin:

Sorry i didnt phone you Jazz, my phone battery conked out on the m40, so couldnt ring you. I did take a steady drive home, but at 10pm at night on the motorway with little traffic  :evilgrin:
Don't worry about it. I wasn't going to be able to make it anyway (last minute change of plans)!

No he hadnt done anything, ive since polished out some very fine stratches that the got from Nadeems Garage.
The Monzas are a piece of cake to clean and to protect using Poorboys Wheel Sealant and some collinite wax.

...and no im not Wrapping nothing round those either jazz :smiley:
I meant tyres! Which tyres are you gonna go for? Or are you gonna take the ones off the pescaras?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Have decided to buy some Vrrederstren Sessanta's (excuse for spelling ).

A. because of fairly good feedback from fellow GTi Members.
B. Cheap for £90 each
C. They look a good tyre, not boring side wall design etc
D. Have had to cut back on funds for financial reasons.Unexpected wallet bashing on something else. ( Goodyear Asyms were 1st choice).

So roll on Monday morning, Phylis all Bathed and ready to roll :happy2:

Look forward to seeing the pics and would really appreciate some feedback on the tyres. Seems I'm not too far off needing some new boots:(

I almost went for the Vred's - they look like a decent tyre.  I ended up with the Avon ZV5 as they were slight cheaper and supply was easie. I heard road noise on the Vred's can be more noticable.

(this was only on the Touran mind you)

Be interested to see what you think and see the car with those wheels on!
