Picture thread

Hi all,
I have a new addition to my fleet and I would like some inspiration, but I also think it would be nice for all to show their rides and the work they might have done to them. So as the title says, please post a picture of your cabbie for all to see (if you want), i'll start with mine and hopefully this will look different in the near future:

Not mine:

Thanks in advance for your input and please make this a 'sticky' if it becomes popular?

Hi Yaz, money wise it has cleaned me out for the moment so I will live with it as is. But I would like some wheels 17's Smile

18's would look nice but it's my everyday car so may be a hard ride. Im not mad about the rubberised strips along the door bottoms and i know with age they look scruffy and start to come away, I would like the whole bottom half colour coded, but for the moment the car is straight and original and sharp for A 14 year old.... But Im up for ideas Wink

Nice looker! Those are known as "bolero's"- with a polished lip they look MINT...

My recent purchase, '98 2.6 auto with 60k miles:

Although it looks rather different inside just now: seats and carpets are out (recolouring the leather and drying the carpet!).

I'm glad i started this thread now, some really nice pics and cars on here!

Agentprawn - I like the ride height on your cab, would you mind if I asked what suspension you're using please? Coilovers or springs? and what height please? And are you still using the standard size tyres on your Bolero's? It looks great and this is the sort of stance I would like with mine too with the Bolero's Very Happy

Many thanks
Yaz

hi yaz

in the pics the car was on some PI lowering springs bought from eBay for about £80 iirc, think it said they would drop the car 40mm but it actually dropped a lot lower, i also took one extra coil out of the rears to get it to sit level. i didn't, but it would've, benefited from some uprated front dampers. i've since fitted KW coilovers and have raised the car up by about an inch as i've a few extra speedbumps to contend with

boleros are running standard size tyres

2.8 cabrio manual, retired to the sunshine Smile

(Spanish plated now)

and this week I finally managed to get another 17" Bolero (ebay, after nearly 2 years waiting and watching) to replace the one buckled one it came with..

Bear is very happy about the vibration under his right rear being gone at last..

Bolero's really suit the cabby Very Happy

I just bought myself a Audi Cabriolet 2.6 from 1995 last week. The car has some marks and scratches but has got an impressive service history.. and most of the marks on the picture can be fixed with some intensive cleaning Smile
