Picked up the new car last Wednesday - gleaming - and then on Thursday morning took it down to Wales on a 750 mile round trip to watch the Rally!

Still got a few things to do - Rallytech spoiler, Eibachs etc, HID headlamp option, but you get the idea.

Very nice. Looks better dirty!

 

I've told him he's not allowed to clean it for at least two weeks to preserve that 'just got back from the rally look'

He's starting to twitch about it already, pacing up and down looking at the sponge

Wow top bit of kit you got there fella,well done.

I am still off work at the mo i would love to meet this week to have a better look.

JIM

 

Very nice mate, wasn't sure when you described the wheels but they look really nice on.

How are you finding it now you've had it a bit? How does the Prodrive BB compare?

Having the Defi gauge pack fitted to mine on Thurs

And a trip to Scoobysport on Sat

Thanks for the comments Jim - If you are at Bedford on Friday - we should be there too.

Simes - the car is very good - exceeded my expectations so far - goes aswell (if not better)than my old car (and the engine is still very tight). Handling is a lot better - less understeer and the ride quality is in another league. I would be interested to see some pictures of the Defi gauges and a trip to Scoobysport or similar is on the cards (as soon as the 'check engine light' problem has been solved with de-cat exhausts).

Cheers

Chris

Nice

think you need to call in Mr Wax Wizard himself chrissie pressie perhaps

 

Might be right Bex - see how the Christmas pressie buying goes...

Cheers
Chris

 

Coolio,

Was this the car you were planning on buying? Regardless, it's groovy mate, well done.

Cem

 

Nice car Chris, but then I am biased!

Have you checked out the suspension forum, Prodrive have released new springs for the MY01 only. With a drop the ride height some (along with the benefits of better handling to) and with those rather nice wheels...

The rally look is interesting but I like the shiny look no matter what people said at the Watford II meet (Sal).

Just wait till you get PPP, so much more fun!!

 

Looks good Chris, better in the clean shot I'd have to say

Have you ordered a nice strip LED for the front - knightrider look

 

Saw the old car parked in a corner at Cheam Motors this morning.

RichardC

p.s: I still like those wheels

 

Cheers guys

Cem - I was originaly going to buy Carolyn T-S's car but she has wisely decided to keep what is a very unique (apart from Daves ) MY01.

This one came up at the right time and price, so I decided to go for this one.

Cheers
Chris

 

Nice one chris, looks very nice.

Catch up with you guys soon
