Hey thanks, I don't know what it is with Cups but they never looks as good in photos as they do in the flesh (erm.. metal)

Floodie, it's the driveway mate, it's not even at all It's fine when it was out on the road at the front earlier. Thanks for noticing tho

I've put silvervisions in the back, just don't have a spare set for the fron at the moment. Can I ask, are the front ones same fitment as the back? Slightly offset pins?

Thanks for the comments guys.

Toms_cup, I got it from a garage in Warrington. It's got climate control too which is pleasing It's a great example, bodywork is immaculate and only 20k on the clock.

 

[kully]

cool

 

[Dave H]

Nice

 

[Rich]

Looks a really nice example. Enjoy.

Ah right, phew was gonna say!.. it really didnt look normal at all... thats cool then...

Re: the silver visions, if your only getting a pair then put them on the front rather than the back mate... ideally get them all round but i think they are more effective on the front of the motor... imo

EDIT: after looking at the pics again... is the driveway REALLY that bad for it to be like that stationary??.. it kinda looks like the the front passenger side wheel is off onto the road and all 3 other wheels are up on a kurb.. but on the "front on" pic it all seems level... just worried in case there is an issue and you can get it back to the dealer buddy

 

[Josh27]

Very nice

 

[pecan]

I'll double check it next time it's out of the garage just to be sure, I'm sure it was fine on the road, I would have noticed something like that. If you notice the back looks particularly lower than it should, it all evens up on the flat.

I'll be getting some more silvervisions for the front so I'll leave the ones in the back now.

 

[Diego.uy]

Lovely blue one mate!!! enjoy a lot!

 

[Floodie]

[Jonaldinho]

[Ad]

Where did you get it from in warrington. CC is nice addition. Get yourself to the next NW meet. We are a friendly bunch.

 

[pecan]

Rix motors, I've heard bad things about them from people on here, but this was after I bought it... I had no problems with them.

Thanks for the comments guys, unfortunately I can't drive her yet, need to wait until I'm 21 in March for cheaper insurance.. It's worth the wait but it's still gonna kill me. mwuahaha.

 

[Alan]

Lookin good mate...

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

Looks very tidy, welcome to the cup world. You'll love it.

coils anyone

 

[gazcaddy]

Nice motor

 

[daviebroon]

cracking cup mate. Welcome to the world of nutter hot hatchbacks.

I agree with what your saying about pic/reality. They always look better in the flesh.

I find that you should take your photos either from a distance... or from very close up. Make sense? The bit in between doesn't show em off very well.

 

[daviebroon]

close-up = good

distance = good

middle = naff

 

[Trail182]

hehe thats a good point about the photo distancing mate... I've found that too

Lovely car pecan, I think I may have seen this in Warrington and I was really impressed with the condition of it. I think you've got a good'un there mate!

btw. my car sits really strange on my drive too... its only slightly uneven but it makes the car looks like Rick Waller is sat in the back on one side

 

[pecan]

Trail182, haha yea, mine straightens up fine on the road.

D.brown, cracking photos, I see what you mean
