You wouldn't believe how long I've been waiting to do this. Couldn't be bothered to work out/remember when to reset the trip computer so that it read 123.4 or 789.0 at the precise moment though :p

Persuaded my mum to go for a small upgrade a few months ago and yesterday she finally picked it up. iPotato photos and no scenery so photography merit is low, but I can't put these in Show Us Your Motors because it isn't mine, but I will be insured to drive it :)
 
2016 Golf GTI (Nav). Main option being the panoramic sunroof which seems reasonably rare here and was the one thing she wanted the car to have regardless of other options and colour - she's nuts :p
 

 

 
Previous car for reference - 2013 Golf GT TDI...
 

 

 
 
Problem is I want a GTI now, but I don't have £24k to drop on a car and hate the idea of financing one, so I'll look into late MK5s or MK6s as they're more in my price range :p

Never stop making Metal music like the above Canada...

Finally got the Eibach 30mm lowering springs installed. It looks a lot better, perhaps the photo doesn't do it as much justice.

So today my internet speeds went from 5.4Mbps download, 0.93 Mbps upload to:
 

 
 
 
Yeah we did! :cool:

Trying to find bands with a similar sound to Windir, luckily there seem to be a few from the Sogndal area of Norway including this one (old members of Windir) and all of the bands from that area seem to carry a similar sound.

This guy knows how to hustle a Seat Leon around the Nürburgring..
 

 
I think for one reason or another he might know the track quite well though :lol:

everything is done for this step :))

bonus content Custom exhaust :)

Yeah, the stones in the last photograph did get me, luckily I know to turn around so my back gets it rather than my camera :p

Can't sign in to FlickR so Imgur will have to suffice for these:
 

 

 
The guy (just about) visible in the bottom left of the first photo was flying model gliders around, but the glider was either out of shot or too small for my phone to pick up. Not a bad place to carry out your hobby :)
 
Shame I seem to have died/been drunk and couldn't pan a phone around without skewing the horizon :p

Cracked out a Led Zeppelin CD to listen to in the car..

Windir is one of my favourite discoveries in the last year, unfortunately almost fifteen years too late. The vocalist died early in 2004, but the last two albums (this song in particular) would make you wonder if he knew his fate before it happened. Would only recommend listening to 2:58 onwards which is a really nice infusion of metal and electronic music, only listen to the earlier part of the song if you're in to Metal/Black Metal or very open minded.
 

 
Tried making the video start at 2:58, but it doesn't seem to work when embedded.

The Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula are probably my favourite area of space currently (have been for a while).
 

 
There is a tower of gas in the Eagle Nebula which is 9.5 light years long, it just boggles my mind when I try and comprehend the size of that.
 
I'm firmly in the camp that there must be something/someone else out there somewhere when you take in to account that the Eagle Nebula is one (extremely) tiny part of the universe in the scheme of things. That 'something' might be so far away that we'll never see it, but it's out there.

A couple of the BMW. Haven't taken any photos of it other than it being on the driveway until now, still not as good as the city backdrops in the photos above.
 

 

 
Lovely stone-chipped front bumper and dirt in the rear tail lights from water getting in to them.
 
New tail lights and bulb holders coming this week. Also bought a storage tray to go where the ash tray should be (missing), and a first aid kit (missing).
