Yeah it took a while to find the right deal, you know the problem!! The headlining is the only issue, cleaned up very well but there is a slight depression in it! so I'm going to have to see if steam will assist or it will be another one ! It's now the great fun of putting the big jigsaw...

Well a little update today! After a 980 mile round trip yesterday, I returned with a full interior...... just a few snap shots of the larger bits, so bar a few isolated trims and an ISO fix bar I have the full interior..... More deliveries to follow.....

Sounds like fun..... I'll be down to look :up:

I hope iv not started something here 🙈

Me neither

Tell us more......!

The Akro sounds great. I didn't realise Fraser's had one when I had a shot, I was was more impressed with the handling. To be fair as it was his I wasn't thrashing it, just a casual drive from KNOCKHILL to his house with it, but it did sound great low down, not droany at all just very throaty...

Yeah fully decatted so that's adding a little.... the bigger issue is most possibly the lack of rear seats & panelling as seemingly it doesn't sound as loud externally as it does in side

I'v noticed everything's expensive for a mk3..... 🙈 Like you though I absolutely love the new one! Let me know how the Akra goes Mark, as if I'm going road, I'm going to need something a little quieter :grimacing:

I was thinking the same initially, but the washer bottle lid paint is cracking, as it's too thin plastic, so to have that yellow and the rest green just couldn't happen......

Flol!!

Don't suppose anyone has ever tried one of these?

You have one of these too..... Lol the deliveries are just arriving all at once! It may be coming out of storage sooner than later 🙈

More shines new parts have arrived....... Brand new and unused, saved a snappy re trim Early Christmas :grimacing: More to follow.......

Yeah I just looked at the spec on line...... F@CK me!! I'll just look and admire as it goes past me 🙈

Lol @Davyy I feel your pain..... There's taking it around a track, and TAKING it around a track lol! The Trophy was the latter, the 200 will be the former :smile: The Trophy was built for pure aggression and a good bit of competition between a group of us at KNOCKHIL (as well as being shiny)...

Ps..... I'm still not convinced the AG will be seeing track, other than exhibition / show days 🙈 Although I have been known to change my mind :grimacing:!

Now you are talking, I like that over the fiesta

Only if you paint it green mate :grimacing: will be good too catch us with you again :up:

Only if you paint it green mate :grimacing: :up:

Yeah same price at the local dealer too... I opted for pick up with post issues just now and got a we discount off the badge and key ring too

Well a boring update but the parts are starting to arrive...... like the original quality idea so have started already.... I hope this is a quick winter as the bills are already mounting up lol !! A little bit depressing that I have all this stuff mounting up and no car to put them on...

Well as per usual that's her washed polished (and the trailer) and tucked away out of harms way for the winter! So I'll start collection parts ready for when I bring her out in April......... new floor mats should arrive next week, passenger is unmarked but the drivers is just beyond a...

Well these also arrived so will get them all fitted up....... Think I'm going for a new dipstick as well... and possibly bonnet stay unless I can get the green off the yellow part I'm also liking the genuine RS carbon effect side skirt extensions and lowered front spoiler / splitter...

That's the plan mate. It has the rear carpet in already, so plastics, head lining etc etc

Today's update! I know this sounds daft but my first real drive of the AG other than on and off the trailer.... and that was only to the MOT station! F@CK it's an animal :imp: power and noise are insane!! Almost FAILED! 🙈..... then I changed the side light bulb :grimacing:! Mad it...

Thanks Andy.... I'll try and keep you suitably inspired still with the new one....:up:

Thanks mate, your comments really appreciated. I loved the Trophy and had a lot of fun with the build, learning a lot as I went and never regretted a day of building it. Biggest mistake I made with the build was keeping a spreadsheet of every cost and all I can say is the owner, who is...

Great news mate, glad to hear it and I'll hopefully get to see her again soon :up:

The Trophy ? If it is then I wouldn't like to comment as it's not my place now..... all I can say is what ever number it is, I guarantee i had double that in building it!!
