Another 5th Gen VTi

Post by llocke » Sat Aug 01, 2015 7:31 am

So my red bb4 failed MOT and I didn't really have the time to fix it so I decided to go buy yet another Lude.

Found this gem on gumtree only 2 miles from my work for £695. Its a bit rough around the edges and just generally needs some tlc but can't complain when it only passed MOT 3 weeks ago.

This one is pretty much exactly the same as my last 5th gen, h22a5 on an auto box.

First upgrade was to fit my 215/40/17 Yoko Parada Spec 2's so stayed on late last night and got them on.

For anyone who is interest I will be breaking BB4 Lude, will be making a separate thread up for that of course :D

Cheers guys did think I found a bargain, the seller wasn't really a petrol head. I've always wanted the bonnet spoiler :D

I will be making up a thread this afternoon with a full list of failures. Had a few people interested already.
