Ok, just in case anyone is thinking they have deja vu, yes I did post a UD write up last night. But Ric, being the kant that he is, deleted my user profile and my post this morning. So a round of applause to Ric please!!
So, the first big show has come and gone. The VW show season is officially underway.
Ultimate Dubs is the first chance to see the cars built over winter, see what the new “must have” mods are for the year and of course chance to catch up with mates that you havent seen for a while.
After a quick wander round the 3 halls full of cars it was apparent what the “must have” for this year is, Rotiforms. There was a shit load of cars wearing them. It seems everybody has an opinion about them; some love, some hate, I personally think they are shite but each to their own.
Another mod that is really starting to take over is air ride. And judging by the amount of cars with subtle “Air By Plush” stickers, business is booming for the boys at Plush Automotive. Of course all the cars on their stand were sitting inch perfect and it was the first outing for Luke’s new RS4 with stunning green leather interior. Plush also fitted the air to our very own Simpy’s blue MK5 Golf which had a crowd round it all day, looking amazing with the under belly kissing the ground and a set of 3 piece OZ Futura rims (the only car there with a set and yet another reason why he shouldnt buy Rotiforms!).
Some of the cars in the car park were worth a look too, 2 that spring to mind are Rich’s matt black MK3 TDI on 17×10 KW Turbo’s and Hamidi’s MK4 on air and X5 rims.
Inside, most of the cars were simply amazing, the sort that make you want to spend a fortune on the car you have!
Some of my faves of the day were a creamy white MK1 20v on polished Porsche splits, a white Eos, Gareth Spiller’s all conquering Vento R32, a beautiful silver Lupo GTI with so many clever little touches and Shifty’s stunning MK2 16v.
