The stickers have grown on me but I know what you mean first time I seen the car I said to myself the stickers are comming off!!

In fairness he did tell me he had his eye on them first Richy

Are they a different PCD then ?

Kev needs some heating in his garage by the way

They are the same PCD but a hugely greater offset and an 8.5J width (235 45 17 Tyre) so won't fit under the arches...

Is there a set for sale somewhere or was it just meantioned in conversation???

LOL, I was talking about a 'tuning' project managing service... You give us your cash, we get the mods done and take 10% project management fee...

I'd go for both kev, Roof vent and the morretts, they both look good.

Bin the stickers and paint the whole thing pink!!!!!

Seen that yesterday, looks really nice, the paint job must of cost a fortune , really like the carbon with the coloured lacquer over it.
Don't think i'd pay £17K for a P plate type R though

£17K is a tad much, your knocking on the dorr of 22B's at that money.

Really like the look of this one:
https://www.scoobynet.com/private-sa...ar-2000-a.html

If i hadn't just bought the new engine etc think i'd buy it


Wouldn't fit the standard 5 spokes back on it Kev, the nice for standard wheels but way too small.

It's a colour combination that's very unusual... especially OEM, Kev's got another Marmite Car
