Welcome!
yep, the wheel paint is poo, not that many on here with standard colour alloys now due to changes when refurbing!
When you come to modding, ask around what to buy. When you say BOV, our cars really need a BPV, or a re-circ valve. The stock isn't actually bad depending on your tune, and you can hear it with a better intake.

Welcome along  You're not too far from me either, I usually knock about in Grimsby and Clee. I might see you about when I'm actually home. Another Mk 1 has recently popped up in Clee too
