Lush! That's featured here before (when it was for sale). Love the vinyl roof. PURE CLASS! Now, when are you going to put it on banded steels!

Hey guys.....I'm new here! Thought i should post a pic of my ride... Wibble Wibble ;D That looks ace! I Love the vinyl roof and chrome trim - those wheels look good, but perhaps more at home on a Sport? I think it would really suit some old Skool rims, 15" ATS classics perhaps Welcome to the board by the way - I think you'll find us all a friendly bunch

Mmmm - i'm not sure, some photoshopping maybe required Could be cool as a show gimmick, but personally I don't think I could drive around 'normally' with white wall tyres - tis a bit like wearing a kipper tie ;D

Looks great! Definately keep the body etc stock though - the contrast between the red paint and black trim with the chrome highlights is very effective. The wheels seem to suit it too

Thanks man.
I just bought a replacement air filter off ebay (brand new K&N) for 13 quid. Its got a terrible flat spot at the mo and i don't think the dirty air filter/big hole in the filter box/curse word pierberg carb/mega dirty fuel filter are helping!
