Flame red 172 (inc. pics of Zetec-S) - anybody still on dial up?

[markhinton]

Only just got the chance to upload pictures of my car (and some of my friends) which I took a couple of days before I left for uni. Seems weird seeing the car this clean! :S

First of all, car gets jacked up and the wheels are taken off so I can clean the arches, then I waxoyl around them and paint the calipers.

Clean, sun was going down so the rest of the shots aren't the best quality:

Sad yes, but everytime I see this come up it makes me smile:

Can't wait to get home so I can clean her again!

No lol, I told him not to put it on as it's a pet hate but he went ahead with it.

But then to be fair, my Clio hasn't been around Castle Combe yet but I went around it a number of times in my Fiesta. It's a grey area with the whole 'I've been around it, but the car hasn't' and again, I didn't want to put it on but had a spare sticker and it fitted perfectly over the oil filler cap! I'll take her there next year

Nice one, bit of lowerin needed imo.

Definitely, this is on the agenda. It'll be very typical but it's gonna get a Cup spoiler, splitter and hopefully lowered over some silver Turini's.

Cheers they look absolutely rank now though I reckon. Engine bay is still relatively clean though!

 

[Curley]

[VeinAST]

How long did it take you to get the miles at EXACTLY 172? LOL

Immaculate car bud!

 

[JCC]

Flamers look so damn good when clean. Good work.

 

[VeinAST]

Fiesta does look bland though.

 

[Wests Renault]

Looks lovely Mark.

I have a set of H&R springs, if your after some

 

[alex-avfc]

That looks stunning. Looks to be in top condition from the pics.

Oh and I am another sad one who looks forward to returning from Uni to clean my car

 

[jack_davey]

How you getting on at uni mark?

That looks f*cking lovely by the way, you should just keep it totally standard and unbelievably clean!

 

[Mr Burns]

Enjoyable pictures fella

Lol I randomly flick through the trip and it always seems to turn up! Wasn't planned, honest!

Flamers look so damn good when clean. Good work.

True, when they're clean. Atm all I want to do is swap it in for something which looks pretty - liquid yellow, racing or even arctic blue have been thought about as a swap. I know as soon as she's giving a good wash and polish I'll love her again though!

Looks lovely Mark.

Jamie! :wub:

Any pictures of them on your car?

Uni's awesome, it's not as laid back as I was told it would be, but I love it! Just don't love the lack of money now

I'd like to keep it standard, but I get bored so easily. I only want to go for an 'OEM+' look, nothing major!
