Cool

Just thought I would post up the latest pics of our car. Not the greatest shots, we'll try and post some better ones over the weekend.

For the record, the wheels are 18" Prodrive OZ, Eibach springs, and the spoiler is from RallyTech, details here.

Thanks to Cheam Motors and Powerstation for their help

Cheers
Chris

Good to see Sal's car looking good - any chance of some photo's of your Vitara Chris?

How far have you got with the performance mods? I'm just wondering if I need to get a Nitrous kit before the Cat

Could you please tell me:

a) the cost of the spoiler and price of painting?

b) the height of the spoiler from the boot?

Looks very nice.

Cheers Chris, I've worked really hard to get it looking like that Chris says "it's a Grand Vitara V6 if you don't mind and I'm very proud of it" Honestly the shame of it, I really tried hard to not include it in the pics but he insisted hehehehehe

Cheam Motors (Surrey) supplied and fitted the spoiler for about £600 including painting. Click on the link in Chris' first post to go to the RallyTech site for more details.

The height of the spoiler is 200mm
Height from top of boot lid to top of spoiler is 250mm

Thanks for the comments Got the car looking pretty much how I want it to now. Maybe some subtle tinting to the windows, not sure yet. As regards other mods, I think a trip to My Croney's establishment will be on the cards in a few weeks and maybe the driving lamp conversion to go with the HIDs.

Cheers

Theres a group buy for the Rallytech at the moment. I think Tony Booth is managing it. Drop him a mail, he may be able to sort you out.

Chris,

Looking very good... I have realised how much I am lagging behind with the modifications now.

Must stop changing the exhaust every three months.

So which car are you and Sal turning up with at the next meet?

Very nice and clean!
I would be scared to drive it from looking how shinny the Scooby is.

Thanks chaps for the comments (again)

Camera used was a Canon A10 - the most basic and straightforward point-and-click digital camera they make. The results I've got with this are really impressive.

Pictures were uploaded via our own webspace at NTL - we haven't done anything with the website yet, other than use it to host a few pictures.

I think I prefer welsh mud to road salt any day

We shall be at the next meet in this car

Cheers
Chris
