Before any further mods I need to fix the sunroof leak as the carpet is drenched in water which sucks! Emptied a bucket full of water on Sunday evening.
Going to slightly tint the rear lights. Enough so that the clear circle goes slightly dark.
The electric system is getting the Big 3 upgrade...
Small update got the rear spoiler resprayed, rear window tinted and the Michelin PS3's fitted!
Looking almost complete on the exterior, door handles are being spray atm bought a spare set of iceburg ones for £10 posted bargain!
New number plate added to our collection (ford Ka) love...
@masekwm small world! I drive past this everyday to get to work! I come from the left way (in your first pic) and go towards the right. Many people cut this round about. The three lanes on your end make it even more confusing. With regards to your insurance issue it might be a bit late to push...
Yeah as said above taking the dash out is super easy. You should run your new speakers with tweeters (it would still work without) just for better high range. I disconnected my rears to allow more power to go to the fronts and it sound so much better!
@JoePeps It zooms in to allow for the 3d effect just look at the bottom of the screen and it should say (something) zoom: ON/OFF just turn it off
Hope this helps!
UPDATE! Got my coilovers installed last week and I am loving them!! Get my michelin PS3's put on this weekend so that will make the front wheel fill the arch better like the rear.
Car is looking really smart, the ride isn't to bad either its just back breaking lol.
Proud of how far shes come...
Been offered two pretty much new Michelin PS3's although one is XL and one isn't.
If I use this setup on my front wheels will I notice any difference? Or should I go both XL or non XL ?
Regards,
Jay
@DaveDreads I have done about 30 miles with the fuel light on and it didn't seem to be coughing or showing any signs of an empty tank although I have a 1.2 and it would probably be 15miles before you should find you nearest petrol station.
Coilovers ordered should be here next week! Cant wait to see her sitting lower also getting the spoiler and door handles colour coded at the moment so that should be ready for next week when I also put the coileys on :) Need to get my new tyres and change my cambelt as I am 14,000 miles over...
Seen a set on ebay for cheap just wondering how are they? Want my car low to the point where the wheels are like a inch away from the arch (if that makes sense) not looking for immense lows but the idea of being able to adjust height to the perfect look appeals to me! Been told about buying used...
@yokedpiediver you might be interested in my dynamique 1.2 check my build thread but skip to the last page to see what I have done :)

All my electronics are sorted in mine I have bluetooth upgraded speakers etc... Sound deadened the whole car got xenons 172 wheels had the car repsprayed. Just dont want to see it go and insurance for me is stupid high £3000 it drops to £900 this year but I can get anything else because it...
ahah thanks! dont want more than 140bhp most likely as I want to keep my dynamique but it could do with the extra grunt. What to economy be like I get 38mpg combined atm. So what would I need to buy as far as parts engine, gear box, ecu etc... also would the trip computer still work in mine?
I heard a 1.2 TCE caps at 130bhp which is fine but wouldnt you have to rev the tits off of it to keep the power up? The 1.6 would not needs as much thrashing but thats the only factor thats keeping me from the TCE. What mods would have to be done? How much would you say this project costs?
F4R just seems like it would be heavier lump up front and I dont want to completely convert my car into a 172 or 182 I thought the twingos engines would be lighter and providing much more power than my 75bhp would be good enough. Would I have to get new brakes, suspension etc? I would fit the...
anyone ever tried or thought of fitting a twingo engine into there mk2 dynamique?
Thinking as the engine + parts are pretty cheap and the mechanic work on my end will be free but wondering if its worth it?
@172_Tom @STEVE.M
I was looking at my tyres and there apparently the best rated budgets accelera I believe there called. They are £40 a corner I was ragging the hell out of it today and it was holding pretty well its just bad in the wet. I think I might get the dunlops based on the ratings...
