Nice 1!!!!

I see you've bought the RPM motorsport development car - serious motor indeed.

Unfortunately, as you're in Handsworth, you'll need some major security (unless you know some people, or everybody knows not ot touch )

I'd start off with a Disklok (silver to match the motor ) then maybe look at a Barrier Deadlok, baseball bat, and a Tracker!!!


I've done the exact same coz I'm in West Bromwich (just down the road), but I've also got a major mutt!!!

If I see you I'll 'flash'!!!

Nuff respect.

Dan

Who makes that front bumper? I have an idea (very painful ) It would be ideal.

I think I know who one of the original owners of this car was.

Is this a 93 or 94 with a face lift???

One of the previous owners was Glenn Campbell the boss of Revolution Motorstore.

He's the one responsible for the facelift upgrade, front bumper, and the leather interior (I think!!)and probably most of the other goodies that are fitted.


Hope this helps.

Muddy.

I'd get a new steering wheel and snap-off hub instead of a disklock. Bit more to shell out but would probably put off the more 'opportunist' thief than the disklock. Nice machine though

Cool

Yup, a tidy motor indeed. Nice mods, all tastefully working together.

Reliability? Depends on under-bonnet mods, but usually BL00DY GOOD!

As for tracking systems, it depends. When I had mine fitted, I paid about £650 in 1999. That was for Tracker 24 Monitor with a lifetime subscription. Otherwise I think it was something around £300 for the tracker itself fitted, then £100 a year subscription.

There are much better systems now available, so try the SECURITY forum for more details?

Hope you enjoy your car, looks great.

Squizz.

No expense was spared with this car when Glenn owned it. This was the car that enabled Glenn to start a new market in Subaru equipment.

Saw it on track plenty of times, goes well, but Glenn is a bl**dy good driver.

I hope you like it!!!
