Not a bad update at all, well worth the wait IMO. I've been following this for as long as I can remember!
I love all the little details on this car that the average person would never even think of or consider.
I might have missed this somewhere but, where does the PAS pump and alternator...
It could well do lol! Was going to post and then saw the date, meant to post in the CSS thread instead and somehow ended up posting back here again lol!
Possibly Wednesday night can't remember exactly but was Southend bound between Rayleigh Weir and Progress Road about midnight, was hoping to hear it off the lights but you darted off down Progress Road
Ahh right, probs explains it then, I'm only in once a week and normally take the ST.
Cheers mate :approve: next time you see it in there it'll have a cage and have got a little more serious lol!
Not everyone does, everyone in my year and the year below were always all over mine when I had it...
Saw you on the 127 the other night, was on my way home from work in the blue ST, this looked lovely, so much road presence from it being so squatty I spotted you a mile off even in the dark!
I was hoping to hear a bit of supercharger whine though lol!
Ahh so this is the one that I've seen pop up in the CEME car park then haha...
Never noticed the VXR though strangely, either it doesn't stand out enough or he hasn't had it in college?
Also Tails_ you'd be the one that spotted me a while ago parked by the bus stop then at CEME too, my little...
Just keep a helmet in it permanently to save the questions lol! Impromptu track days wouldn't be an issue ever haha!
I've got an Oreca/TRS one to go in once my cage is fitted.
Proper memory jerker this! My dad used to have an 'A' reg Ghia one of these, bought it new from the dealers but didn't have the pepper pots, I used to love it, was proper old school cool!
He eventually sold it to one of his mates cousins iirc and 1-2 weeks later I was sitting in class at school...
Wow I've just caught up on this and seen his Facebook page...what an absolute special case he seems lol!
I have no sympathy for people like that whatsoever haha!
Gorgeous looking car!
Seriously considering one of these as a daily but not sure I can justify the cost versus the amount of issues they seem to have.
I drove a 335i saloon a couple of weeks ago and absolutely loved it, really really did. Had the full BMW performance kit on it too which made...
I asked about this in my local Apple store on Friday as I went with the intention of purchasing a new MacBook anyway but had heard seen a couple of things on the net about rumoured upgrades. Spoke to the manager and he said he hadn't heard anything about any upgrades that are due and made a very...
Wow! Lovely car, one of my childhood dream cars and still is one of them! That is the exact look I'd aim for too! Bigger turbo version too yeah?
Those wheels suit these down to the ground and really fit the era the car was born into aswell. Enjoy!
Is that SaxMax in the second vid? That and StockHatch look absolutely brutal...worse than BTCC and Clio Cup for contact lol! All that mixed in with some mental rally style overtakes on the grass, looks awesome haha!
As for the new track limit rules, I don't agree with them personally, even on...
Cheers mate, that'd be much appreicated when it comes to it :D
Car's looking great btw Russ! I'm in love with that workshop, need to get me one of those haha!
Ahh that's a bugger, needs must though ehh lol ;) all the best for that though.
Be good to see it on a track sometime soon though, gutted I'm missing the Spa/Ring combo though as I was offered it for a dirt cheap price too that I stupidly turned down :(
Have you fitted your headlight blank...
Russ Rallye I'm thinking I might have to come along and get involved and have a nose around your cars and just generally have a look at the racing and see how it's run etc. I've seen Tony, James and a couple of others race in Tin Tops before but there's a lot of newcomers in the Tricolore that I...
sonny172cup Lol the Swift wars sound like epic fun although their huge excesses put me off even trying one, heard a horror story when we were over there on one of our trips, a couple of lads hired them and somehow came together on the exit of Karussell and literally scuffed the front wing of...
That's fair enough Sonny, can imagine its not cheap! I'm tempted to give the Tricolore Trophy a go next year or the year after maybe.
The swifts seem a good laugh, a few mates have used them when we've been over there but I've always had mine with me so not felt the need to hire one, quick...
Absolutely love this! Seen you're pics from the 'Ring last year and fell in love with it then! So purposeful!
I was tempted by the 'Ring/Spa combo but have it a miss and I'm doing DN10 instead, you heading out to do that?
It's currently a track car but it's getting a cage fitted once I either find someone to fit an existing cage or fabricate and fit one, I'll be getting it built to MSA specs as I'm looking to compete maybe next year or the year after depending on funds, namely mortgage saving etc, but in the...
Shame about the issue guys but like you've said, it's so much better for it to happen on a day like that rather than a race weekend although still not ideal!
New engine spec and figures sound great!
