Nice pics Shaun especially the first one which is very mean and moody, that's a great car you've bought.

Some very nice modifications and tastefully done.

But I'm still the SWS pics *****.

Thanks pal. It's a small list if everything that's on it. But it goes well and has been well maintained which is the most important thing.

Thanks pal, I've always liked the bug because people kinda shun them because of their looks. And I love the uk300 because of its even more marmite look.

This what I was chugging around in before the 300 came along. Another wrx

She's obviously a petrol head, I agree on the clutch they are either off or on and a real pig in traffic. You'll have legs like Shwarzenegger in the near future.
