lukes berlina

[luke23]

today i picked up my first car
its a series II berlina
so far so good, just some clearcoat coming of in some spots and a problem with the doors locking/unlocking,didnt relise till after i got it but ahwell
im happy with it and im glade i own one of my faviourite cars on the road
not many mods planned for it so fare, just want to get it all mecanically good first
but some mods are defiantly on the way
i will keep those of you's who are interested updated haha

not bad, not bad at all. Just get the paint sorted and some nicer wheels and it'll be sweet!

What plans do you have for it?

Is there anything majorly wrong with it, or is it just the locks?

Very nice mate, i remember back in the 90's our family car was a VS Berlina haha.
What's on the cards for her mate?
I would invest in an exhaust and lowering first.

Nothing wrong with VS Berlina rims! I love 'em! Looks great when lowered a little...

 

[luke23]

haha thanks boys

with the doors they make a wierd noise when locking and unlocking and one of the back doors wont lock with the button, so i have to lock it by hand, but it unlocks with the button so i guess its not to bad, just when my friends suss my car out the first thing they hear is the noise the doors make unlocking which doesnt sound to healthy haha, and nah nothing majorly wrong so fare which is great
and yeah for future mods i've been thinking of lowering and new rims, sound system, exhaust and engine mods and just fix small things with the car (some of the paint, most of its great exept some of the clear coat, and some tints starting to go a little bubbley) and as for rims in the photos those rims kinda just look like dodgey hub caps on stockies or something but thats because the suns hitting them, but there actually pretty cool rims that are in really good condition, haha "nothing wrong with the vs berlina rims", hmmm you wouldnt happen to have the same ones would you?hahahaha , but i think they look pretty sick but soon might get some new ones if anything comes along, but for now there alright

anyways as for updates its only a day old so not alot, but i was pretty excited and gave it a little service, replaceing the oil and oil filter, and just gave the interior a good clean, was going to peal of all the old tint on the back windows because its starting to go bubbley, but i might just leave it for now, and yeah cars running great and lifes good haha
