Well done on winning another trophy for the collection with your car, looks lovely. Keep up the good work.

is indeed all the way from spain lol, got on its 3000mile road trip in the summer its a bull

As always, nice looking car you've got there.

not much of an update been moving house and jobs lol but got something in the garage waiting to be experimented on, just changed my no plates that is all for now.

As I have a 6 digit plate I was toying with this idea but didnt know how it would look think I will certainly go ahead with it now.

I noticed your back windows black primer for the window sealant hasnt fogged up and split like most have you had your window out and refitted? I assume you probably have as you had a respray? looks tidy with the tint etc.

How does it handle with 18's? Do you not find that there is roll having the coilovers high so lots of scrubing? And how wide are they?

your car is simply awesome mate!

Love the front badge by the way - you make that yourself?

windows never been out, was just a very good tinter, do you mean about the dot matrix bit around the edgeing?

it handled pretty pants compared to 16", and 15" and now 17"s lol, they werent my everyday wheels so were okay to live with and they didnt rub even as they were in that pic, they were 7.5j wide

made by pastyboy on here he will do then at request, have a look in the groupbuy section he sometimes does them for custom badges

Looking good as always Trevor

Couldn't help but notice the massssive aerial on the most recent pics, and yet you have a stubby on the show pics - I assume this is for reception reasons? It's the first time I've seen a car with a 'show aerial'

lol good spot, i can just about get radio 1 with the oem aerial so with the stubby i literally pick up nothing

doing abit of work next week, fitting a new jetex cat back exhaust 2.5inch bore to replace my current 2.25 bore mufflerectomy straight pipe from the cat, needed it to be quieter and the increase in bore cant be bad, also fitting a jabbasport cone air filter that fits inside the airbox, new arb bushes, changing my gearbox oil, and re-fitting my oil temp sensor as i broke the last one doing a oil change. Might even give her a clean lol

indeed may get the courage to split the xenons eventually

I might be interested in some projectors eventually, please pm me if you come to sell

Ah your going for the Jetex. I`v not seen many of them, what tail pipe design are they? You`ll have to let us know what its like

Have a look here for a GB on dirt cheap projectors bud

indeed i always though they were 2.25 thats why no one went for it, but when i found out it was 2.5 same as miltek etc for the price its stupid not too, the tailpipe is virtually same as standard a sort of square oval lol, but it comes separate from the backbox where it bolts on, so i can change it if needs be, much the same design as the piper, was hell of alot cheaper then them all too

A little update, fitted the jetex cat back this morn and jabbasport replacement cone in a box, must say the jetex fitted very well, as is by far the easiest one ive fitted to any of my cars, the tailpipe sat spot on from the moment it went on, ive never had this before with any exhausts, the milltek took ages for me to line it up perfect, its got a nice bass tone to it on idle, and a little bit of a note when booting but nothing loud at all, perfect for what i want at the minute, anyway some pictures, gave her a good clean too enjoy.

Fits a treat I think your car is brilliant

That fits really nicely. Where did you get the Jetex?

seller on ebay, it was apparently ex display so even cheaper, but come through packaged up in a box brand new lol

cheers dude

Nice! That's an extra bonus. Do you know if they do different tail pipe options?

This could be the next mod for my list :-)

Have you thought of doing your dash leds?
