Trying out some HDR edits now I've got access to Photoshop

Hot damn that's a good looking Superb!

A Ford Escort Cosworth at the 2021 Cambrian Rally.

Taken at Whitehaven.

Mine has the standard seats I think, they aren't anything special by any means. I can't offer you any tips on swapping them unfortunately, but i'm sure there will be helpful people the Rapid forum who can shed some light on it for you 🙂

Bought some new tyres in the Black Friday Sales, but broke 4 tyre levers (of questionable age) getting them on the rims AND punctured the rear inner tube in 2 places 😱 So a quick swap took much longer than planned and lead to a lot more swearing. They're on the bike now at least!

A few from Oulton Park on Saturday for the Neil Howard Stages. Not the best, but can't progress without practice!

Mitsubishi Evo 8 or 9 at Alwen Reservoir.

Halloween is for black cats, so here's my black cat looking decidedly brown.

Crossing a river without these new fangled bridge contraptions

View from the top of Wainright No. 128 IIlgill Head. Probably would have been a bit more scenic if not for the clouds.

https://audiotechdirect.com/ One I have isn't made anymore, but plenty of options. No, it was a straight swap and worked as soon as it was plugged in. No need for codes or anything.

(late to the party) Sorry to hear you've had so much grief trying to find a replacement! But as you said, pointless shelling out x-amount more for a car in worse condition than the one you currently own.

I swapped my Swing out for an android unit, and it was dead simple. Bought the unit from Audio Tech Direct, found the right replacement surround and fitted it within an hour. Loads of additional options on the units (DAB, Bluetooth, Rear Camera etc).

Crossed no. 155 Whin Rigg off the Wainright list. Looking over towards No. 128 IIlgill Head

Speedboat, fishing boat and a yacht.

Yacht taken off the harbour wall at Whitehaven. Shortly afterwards it ran over a fishing line and a rather irate group of fisherman fought to free the spool to save the rod. Cue lots of swearing and gesturing.

Looking out of the harbour at Whitehaven as a storm starts to roll in.

Makes perfect sense, thanks!

So just over 2 1/2 years of ownership (added about 30k miles) and still running sweet as anything.

Good looking motor! Always prefer the front chrome in black. Fully reccomend getting the Maxton splitter too (have a look at Maxton's ebay shop, often cheaper than the actual website). From my knowledge, there's little on the market for Cat-backs for the Rapid. I had one custom made/fitted by a local exhaust specialits (Pipewerx).

Going for an "arty-farty" look. Ideally, I'd like the can to entirely in colour and the rest in B/W, but that will have to wait for another time when I can work out how to do it in Lightroom.

Fantastic looking car. The white pinstripe really suits it!

How did you get on, the car going back for a full refund?

Stunning looking car!
