Pyro · Jan 17, 2011

Cheers fella I luv it

shaun. · Jan 17, 2011

how about mirror covers aswell??

Ape · Jan 17, 2011

The silly coloured wheel's crew could be gaining another recruit then

I've definately seen this car in the metal when someone owned it where I lived. Those Coil Pack clamps were on there when you bought it correct?

Pyro · Jan 17, 2011

You certainly will mr ape

yea they were mate when I got it had coilpack bolt down kit, remap, and exhaust, think that's it (scratches head)

I bought it from kent but I know it was in the midlands at some point but tge guys name began with a J

can't actuly remember it tho :shrug:

Ape · Jan 17, 2011

Aye that's right, remember "testing" it against my LCR just after I bought it :cartman:

The reg was on it when it was in the Midlands, the owner before the lad (oxygen theif) I know, was called Jay and he did ask to have the plate back but it never happened.

Good to see you're looking after it better than the numpty I know who had it! Looks like its getting some love now.

Pyro · Jan 17, 2011

She certainly is

and all my pennies to

was it faster back then? Lol one my mates owned it befor me to which was strange lol said age was pushing 230 back then

Ape · Jan 17, 2011

Not sure mate, when mine was standard it still pulled away from it. Whether its the car or driver is up for discussion though lol.

Pyro · Jan 18, 2011

Well I've been looking into hybrids today

and I'm looking at around £2,500 ish for everything I need

better start saving am moving next month so that will help and will be able to fit lcr splitter coz I won't have a ramp anymore :funk:

bit I think I'll wait till I get wheels done and have it sprayed at the same time

UFO Yellow · Jan 18, 2011
