hello everyone from north of the border.
hello everyone from north of the border.
Hi all from Glasgow, new to all this forum stuff. found the sight after searching for tips on modding our vit. Things all started in the spring when me and a friend were looking for a field car for the summer. Couldn't find anything RWD cheap enough, but then found our vit on fleebay. Paid a very reasonable £375 for it. No tax or test but everything looked clean, and anyway we had plans.
Its had a fair bit of work done on it over the summer,
malteasa kaimen tyres on mod rims, 32mm wheel spacers, home made 2" rear 'A' frame spacer, 3" sus and 3" body lift. diff drop brackets, front winch bumper, rear Richmond lockrite
As usual its in the garage the no, relocating the battery to behind the seats and fitting narrower wheel arches. I will put some fresh pics up when we get out in the mud with it.

He's from north of the wall! He's a wildling!
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Cheers for the welcome guys. Jordi I stay right by the Barrowlands, but I'm ashamed to say I've never been to a gig there. Got one planned for near Christmas though. :-)

Re: hello everyone from north of the border.
Barrowlands, love it. First ever gig i went to there the police came to move the junkies from the entrance.
Solid rock cafe is awesome as is the garage and cathouse. Been to oing tuts a few times and both O2 venues. Usually stay in a lovely travelodge on paisley Rd, very classy.

Re: hello everyone from north of the border.
The gayrage?
I never knew that. I've only been there for gigs and i didn't even think that sort of thing existed in glasgow. I mean, it's glasgow not some namby pamby place.
There also a brilliant shop called Pulp in one of the shopping centres, sells ace band wear.
I often thought if i lived in glasgow would it be the same? No wheres the same when you live there though. Loads of people go to Darlington for nights out. I go anywhere but Darlington.
Back on topic, when do we get the up to date Vit photos. Be nice to see how the works looking and have the Zumba stickers been removed?
