no this is her big brother ;-)

the lad built 2 , he sold one to the garage
and his wife kept hers
, I was buying the one on eBay from revitup uk
I did my homework, found the lad who sold it , we got chatting and he told me about his wife's
and we did a deal

this one is better than the one on eBay :-)

I think engine wise it's fairly standard, was more of a show and shine car.
I know where it's from and they do like to keep some super clean cars.

I might be on my own here, but I think it looks, well, a bit chavvy TBH. The stickers need to come off, give it a white spoiler and get some different wheels, then it'll be a win. All IMO of course. Super clean though!

Its a lovely car and spec.

BUT I too thought it could look so much better with the spoiler being white and the alloys being any colour other than GOLD (or white)... not black gloss either!!


It's yours now, so do as you feel

Re-colour code the wing, remove the skirt spats. Sorted. (I like those wheels with the RCM livery - despite not being a warpaint fan on roadcars).

Oh, and do the offside reverse lamp delete for a foglight mod (can't stand the 'quick, SVA requirements' solution).

Clean motor, nice one.
