Default Picked up my new car the other night. EP3 Type R

This is the second one I have owned, 2004 facelift in nighthawk black, full leather and in pretty much mint condition. I'll try to get some pics up soon.

I had forgotten what a hoot these cars are to drive.

Been having a quick look around at the mods available and 240 BHP seems to be quite easy to achieve.

Any other owners on here?

Brilliant, since writing this, some complete kunt has smashed the side of it in while it was parked up, and you guessed it - no note.

3 whole days I had this before it gets smashed.

Sorry to hear that mate, i know just how that feels, someone did it to me 20yrs ago, and i'm just pleased i never caught them.

Hope you get it sorted ok.

There was no other damage to the sills or rear quarter, so that's lucky I guess, I have bought a second hand door to replace it with for the time being.

Hopefully get it in to my mates bodyshop for a spray and complete machine polish in the next couple of weeks.

I'm kind of glad I didn't catch them as well.
