is it wrong to like my stripped 1.2?!

[Pep]

as some of you may know because of other posts i stripped my rear seats out ready for picking up my new wheels tomorrow, but i like the fact i only have two seats, i dont know why!!!

i liked the attention in traffic today, not sure why because they were all dirty looks, but its out of the ordinary because i have an ordinary car!!!

anyone else done it?permanent or temporary and liked it?!

I did it once in my old 1.2 when I was delivering. Car did feel a bit nippier and sounded like a van.

im really liking mine at the mo still not sure if ill put the back seats in as it sounds better and theres defo abit more go lower in the revs.
and its alot easyer to put my bike in ummmm decisions.

im thinking about leaving them out unless i need them, still a bit undecided!

have mine stripped out proper stylee and love it, also got a magnex on there and the sound is awsom, imo keep them out and take even more out lol

 

[Pep]

yeh, in a way i like the confused looks i get in traffic, might make people think its a 172/182 sleeper!

u got any pictures of your stripped out?
all i have done is take the seat bottoms, seat backsand the bar across the back seats out so far, could tell a difference with the spare and jack out aswell but thats back in now! not sure if it just sounds faster or has made a noticable difference.

has anyone noticed the flappy rubber things on the rear bumper (which u can kinda see from inside the car) which make a hell of a noise on tickover?

maybe its my exhaust but god damn they annoy me when i had the seats out

 

[Pep]

flappy rubber things?!

where abouts are they?

 

[Stu_c]

the rubber things open to release the air in the boot i think when the boot is closed

ill get some pics of mine up at the weekend when its been cleaned lol

kinda difficult to explain

they are behind the plastic which is below the boot lid & sorta inside the bumper (so by ur knees inside the car when u open the bootlid)
1 either side.

dont know what they do but ive stopped mine rattling with a bit of tissue paper stuffed in there

 

[Pep]

only rattling ive noticed so far is the rear seat belts clanging around!

 

[clio__chris]

well if u still have the buckles to plug them in then do that........ looks kinda cool as well
