It`s a slippery slope once you start modifying talking from experience . Plan what power want from the start and You will soon get use to it and want more

Ps use the search function on here as if you post a thread newbie wanting advice you`ll get someone ridicule .ou. Try Andy Forest website for power upgrades and what`s needed

Awesome looking classic. Looks wise, I'd keep it as close to standard as possible.
May be change the usual stuff like exhaust, air filter and may be brakes, but it would be nice to see another good looking classic being enjoyed for what it it.

Stunning classic, looks really fresh in white with black rims

I'm in a similar situation re mods, worried about if I start I won't want to stop...

nathmac

cheers guys yeah that's the problem haha so many things that can be done just finding the £££ to do it lol

Leonboy

A decent suspension setup would be the first thing to do, then a quality exhaust system then think about power.

nathmac

yeah and good brake system gave it a polish the day aswell and fitting boost gauge tomorrow

nathmac

Very nice looking classic, the style and colour really suit the wheels, not messed around with ,love the white ones

marco58

Nice job with the wheels mate,but I think the black wheels looked better imo.You could think about getting rid of washer jets on bumper little subtle mod.

nathmac

cheers guy's was happy with the difference the wheels made.never even thought of doing away with washer jets dont think they even work

Now that's a clean example of a Classic! Love how those cars look in white.

Also loving the "i" badge on the front grill... I have one of those to put on mine as well ; )

Have plans on a suspension upgrade? That would be the first thing I'd do if I ever bought my car again! A few months ago, I fitted a set of KW v1 which I'm very happy with (an ALK and a quality geo helps as well ; ))

Cheers!

cheekyron

Looking good on those rims
