Dirty Monaco and Friends

[richy22]

Went out to a place called Orford yesterday. Never been there before and went around the little cCastle they have there...its small but you get an audio thing to listen too which made it a lot more interesting than I thought it would be!

Anyway took a few pics of the dirty Monaco whilst there and met some werid Friends! Id love to know what these are! Various makes one was a BMW I noticed. There were LOADS of them, saw at least 12 on the way there and another 12 in the car park!

I found them really interesting! My missus couldnt work out how to get in them but I showed her the whole front opens up

And a few of the Monaco by itself

edit excuse poor quality pics..they were taken on the Ifail

these little cars were scattered all over the A14 yesterday!!

like the wheels mate was thinking of doing this to mine, whats it lowered on?

 

[richy22]

Maybe they were doing a rally?? There were loads! About 2pm time at Orford

Just lowered on Ebiach springs at the moment but mine sits a LOT lower than someone elses monaco (DB on here) and he has the same srpings??!! :S

Coilies be fitting this week I hope

 

[beatjunkie]

Sportlines? that looks very low for sport springs!

I dunno they were heading towards ipswich from Thetford way around 3ish!too quick to take a photo of them!

 

[Tigger]

You could of washed that dirty thing!

The car's a heap as-well Rich

Great Monaco mate! I like the bullets and car sits so nice with the lucky low drop and splitter. Is the 307 splitter the cheaper one (£30ish from pug?).

Love the number plate too, that's what I'm getting for mine.

 

[richy22]

Hopefully sit a touch lower soon too with the V-maxx on

Yeah the smaller PUG splitter... 7414NQ or something is the part number.

 

[Vish]

Ahh cool, thanks. Did it fit straight on or need cutting?

 

[richy22]

It did need a bit trimming of each end about an inch each side iirc??? Watch ur fingers though as I sloced mine open

 

[Vish]

Ooo will do mate. Cheers again

The BMW ones are BMW Isetta Motocoupé. From mid 50's to mid 60's i think they were made.
