Finally, pics of the ATR..

[_Tom]

Just bored and thought i'd show you all the mighty ATR family bus..its not been cleaned and hasnt in while, infact its just been on a 400 mile drive...HARD! lol! and the pics arent fancy, just ones i had on my phone that i sent to my email by mms...

I love it though for some reason. Never really saw myself in a big car...

Not bad for standard really ey?

 

[jams]

Really like it mate. Something different!!

 

[Djw John]

Yeah still really like these, was tempted by them but had to get the 172 through my system!

 

[Leeshez]

Looks real nice

 

[_Tom]

Cheers! I'm happy....well for now! lol

 

[Dan 172]

Looks great!

Looks wise I would definatley leave it standard.

 

[_Tom]

Was tempted to refurb the wheels but only standard stylee...

Its already at quite a decent ride height. Wish it was 20mil lower though

 

[Ian_182]

Is that beruit your parked in.

Nice car by the way

 

[_Tom]

Looks like it doesnt it! haha! Nah its by some big telephone mast type things.

You can barely make it out when its in its true home -

God Damn that place looks lush....where is that Tom?

Nice car btw, always had a soft spot for the ATR, all that vtec goodness and a decent size boot too.

 

[_Tom]

That my friend is chedder gorge. Not silly far from you really and some awesome roads!

Its my first standard car i've just thought...lol

Been looking around. Could go black on the wheels but its a but scabby looking i think?

Prefer the silver i think. White could look good...

Nice Tom!!! John....... i still feel the need to get the '172' out my system....... fancy a swap for a while?

I didnt think you'd like it? bit too different for you...lol

Ever had a "comparison" with a 172? I havent yet but my best mate who owns a 172 had a go in it yest and thinks its deffo quicker.

 

[Timmay]

very nice Tom - very nice indeed

 

[R3OBC]

oh i mean your car, not the black wheels one lol!! i love mine standard

Erm, ive driven Vickys 172...... love them....but the 172 feels small and frisky (which is good).....i would definately say the ATR is a much more stable high-speed handling car..... Vicky said that mine felt quicker than hers when she drove it in Glencoe....

2 very different cars at the end of the day, and the ATR was 23K when new!!!

 

[_Tom]

I knew you wouldnt like that one. I was being sarcastic about mine..lol

Yeah to be fair theyre miles apart. I feel like i'm going to die when i'm in my mates 172 now...lol

 

[R3OBC]

lmao - but thats half the fun aint it??? the feeling of near death

 

[_Tom]

Oh i get it in this too....just in other ways!

 

[R3OBC]

oh yes...... ever heard the engine scream at 140 down a bumpy test road with both windows open? Jesus christ that gives you a rush!!!

 

[_Tom]

Cant say i have....................................yet!

Hmm....did someone say roadtrip. lol.

Black with a red lip would look awesome imo....:approve:

[Kneel]

how does it compare to the SX? It looks very nice (but lower would really look cool )

 

[_Tom]

Umm completely different..lol! my sx was rapid and rwd. This is tame in comparison although it does handle better.

 

[Clart]

Looks good mate. Nearly as good as mine.....

 

[R3OBC]

as good as black can be......... eh Clart

 

[_Tom]

Less of it!

Might be selling mine to move out anyway. Then i'll save for a red one...

 

[R3OBC]

[_Tom]

Cars are cars mate. I wanna move out with some mates and start living..

 

[R3OBC]

[_Tom]

Well at the moment i live in a town on the outskirts of Bristol. Everyone know everyone and i hate it. Going to get a nice flat with a mate in Bristol city. Means i can walk into town and get drunk and walk the women home back to mine too..lol!

 

[R3OBC]

The back of the ATR is spacious??

 

[_Tom]

Yeah thats true. Maybe i should change the add to say perfect for dogging?! lol

I was always too worried about slug trail on the suade...lol

 

[R3OBC]
