Thought so, couldnt quite tell with the sun reflecting in that part, shame its there tbh. Still that aside it looks like a very nice motor and well cared for. Some quite tastefull wheels too. * * * * *:clown:

I agree, I have my Origin B2 antena on the little plastic shelf thats on either side of the main parcel shelf. The wiring is then routed back under the rear door card and then under the rubber door trim to the front of the car where the connections are made.

The second antena for my satnav is installed under the black plastic cowling at the front of the car between the windscreen and the bonnet.

Great reception in either areas.

The car is very pampered and gets a valet most weeks.I gave it the supaguard treatment a few weeks after he brought and it seems to have worked well.
Antenna was a rush job i believe as he recieved the sat nav and needed to use it the next day.Still i think it looks ok there anyway.

Never liked those rims. Very clean and tidy car tho.

 

[JR]

what tyres are fitted to those rims ?

 

[lee_cup]

looking good mate. very clean.

Never liked that shape of exhaust, but that really suits the car. Mint!

 

[SHORTIE 1.4]

what tyres are fitted to those rims ?

They are 205,40 toyo proxes on the rear and yokohama A539's on the front.
Toyo's wore out really fast and he loves the replacement yoko's

He had either a magnex or mongoose twin round setup before but it kept dropping down at the rear.
So got a custom made cat back which sounds even better then it looks.

[PYE21]
