Re: Inside Koenigsegg - Carbon Fibre Lol at the carbon Stanley knife.

Nice write up that and some brilliant shots... May i ask what lens you were using?

I do too... But if a cars running serious power that paint is only going to get ruined from stone chips if it's used properly. Perhaps i've just realised that whilst you did ought to keep care of paintwork, you're much better off just using the car!

If it end's up running the power and engine he's talking about, who gives a s**t about buffer trails!?

Mk2's aren't all that great dude... They're easy starting to rot now! Still, yours is coming along nice! Going to be seriously fun when finished!

Most will probably be glad to know i've removed the carbon wrap off the boot plinth :) Might try and get the tint off the top half of the rear lights tomorrow.

Not really bored... It was amazing to drive, a proper hoot! But before long it was going to need bodywork, it needed a heater matrix and a few other bits. So i just decided sell on before piling loads of money into a car that isn't worth a lot :)

Cheers dude... Yea, i think with a few tweeks it'll certainly be looking a lot better. But i'm really happy with it still, really glad i went for it! It's definitely got to be raised, just to make getting on my drive easier on the arches! The exhaust, it's growing on me massively if i'm...

Just thought i'd put some better pictures up now i've given her a clean :) bmwfcc by chippen172, on Flickr beemerfcc by chippen172, on Flickr bmwsidefcc by chippen172, on Flickr beemerfcc2 by chippen172, on Flickr bmwfront by chippen172, on Flickr bmwrear by chippen172, on Flickr

Tbf, it's rubber seals just perishing a bit or whatever. It doesn't matter if you pay 1k for a car or 500,000k... Rubber can still perish.

Something i will look into eventually once it's raised :) I've seen a lot of M Sports advertised at this age? It's on the log book as an M Sport anyway! And the insurance recognised it as one! Lol. I wasn't keen on the exhaust at first, but it sounds immense. It's not loud at all, driving...

I know... But consider it a project ha! Like I say, main thing is its really tidy! :)

Haha, that's pretty cool :P And thanks! Just fitted my new stereo... As it didn't come with one. Feels more homely now :)

Tbf I wasn't expecting a good reception due to some of the mods lol... But like I say, bargain price, tidy car despite some of the mods... I'm really happy with it. Chris, its deceptive! It doesn't feel all that quick but then you look at the speedo and you realise you're going pretty quick...

Yea, as i say... There's a few thing's that are abit too 'gangster wannabe' for me. But it's all stuff that can be easily changed. At the price i paid it's an absolute steal and the car is in really good condition! So i was happy enough to take it :)

None of the pics are mine but thanks dude... I'll get some better shots at the weekend :)

Thought i'd share some pics of the replacement for the mx5... The Mazda sold really quick which i was happy about and yesterday i picked this up. 330ci M Sport Coupe, coilovers, m3 wheels, carbon wrapped roof and few other bits etc. The exhaust has really grown on me, not loud at all but sounds...

Minus the TSI's and side repeaters i'd agree.

Screw winter tyres. We probably won't get enough snow to make them worthwhile! Lol

Haha, i get what you mean but i quickly get used to it!

Got to admit, i much prefer the feel of a dished wheel. Just brings the wheel a bit closer to you and helps imo. And no, my arms are not short lol.

*In a straight line... But yea, i'd agree with that. Bikes are 100% more fun than a car, doesn't matter what car i own it always bores me after i've jumped off the bike. But bikes aren't for everyone so...

I think people are missing the point... Yes, you can buy a Scooby cheaper. But it won't have anything done to it like this car's spec. It's only going to have a small market at that price but if you were to buy a standard one and mod it to this spec it's going to cost you a s**t load more than...

Lol at overtaking the Cortina sideways... Hero.

Lol, i'll admit defeat :o

Meh, we're all aloud the occasional slow moment. Tbf, it was a poor joke.

^Erm, they're on camera? :S

That's awesome! Love it!

That's properly gorgeous... Shame about the stickers though as already mentioned.
