Best way is to use an image hosting site, I have an imageshack account but there are free ones like Tinypic etc. Just not Photobucket!!!!!!!
Easiest way I think is just to click add files at the bottom of this page.
Edit: EssexZed beat me to it

I unfortunately had to go with a 2.0 as I have only been driving a short while and the insurance on the other models seemed astronomical. I do plan to remap though but will probably wait until spring and let myself enjoy the power upgrade from my previous vehicle first.
I have done a few small mods to break me into it. Stubby - Storm Motorwerks gear knob and black grills.
Pictures are random but they were pictures for friends and not necessarily here - so please don't judge.

Welcome out of the shadows Johny. Zed looks rather sinister in those dank conditions.

Many thanks all!
That's why i actually took them photos. The morning mist had a great effect - I almost thought it had a carbon wrap type effect

On the subjects of meets, check out the Events section in the General Forum. Things quieten down at this time of year but you can get yourself booked for ZEDfest. It's a way off but try not to miss it, it's a great gathering and a wonderful opportunity to meet lots of other forum members. viewtopic.php?f=14&t=100388JonnyW wrote: ↑Sun Oct 15, 2017 11:56 pm Hey all,

I had definitely thought about a small drop before - and may take mr wilks up on that.
Although I'm tempted by cosmetic things - I was wondering if there is anything that I could do to try and ensure longevity/performance first? Not necessary looking for more BHP - Evolve (who seem quite trusted by people on here) reckon they can boost bhp from 180-250's so that may happen just before spring unless people know a better alternative, but things like Air Induction kits or... I'm open to ideas of best bang for buck
I have looked into ZEDfest and 100% down - Will get onboard and book in the coming week

Evolve have mapped some 20i cars to higher figures than 250bhp RobJonnyW wrote: ↑Mon Oct 16, 2017 11:45 pm I had definitely thought about a small drop before - and may take mr wilks up on that.
