My new beasty :)

[D1CKY]

Love the new car Laura, looks lush in red

Any plans for it ?
I say debadge it at rear and maybe front and do this with the "V" (paint it black)

And it'll look ace....

Outta curiousity what did you get for the 172 and what age was it ?

 

[Englebert]

Don't debadge it! Makes them look like a kit car, and i always think its pathetic people remove the Vauxhall badges...

Black vee and windscreen surround would be nice though!

 

[Laura]

TBH near every red one is done black and red, this one is so mint and ofiginal it would be a shame to change anything for the time being

 

[kyle_sxi]

awsome car how come you didnt go for the turbo ?

 

[Laura]

tbh turbo's arnt my thing

the 2.2 na is fast enough, faster than the clio and a totally different car, the NA is also better looking imo and said to handle better

not to mention the turbos are about 4k more expensive to buy hehe

 

[Leeshez]

Looks real nice .

 

[Justin]

Got to have a black vee and surround!

Oh and get some HID's!

 

[Laura]

you know what, i fancy some turbo wheels but highly polished what you think?

 

[Justin]

Turbo wheels look better, but they are heavy, and not that good looking.. The speedlines look EVEN better. Or TD1.2's

Nice. Blue one is p**n.. I saw a rapid black turbo with a intercooler hanging out the front once. God knows how? Piping must be massive. It was raaaaaaaaapid though..

Ahhh, the girl and the car that made me realise that my Valver is very very expensive.



I don't like you.

lol, hows that mate?

 

[Christopher]

[Laura]

A rose among thorns

 

[cat171]

I love it, the interiors not my thing, apart from that it's sweet, rabita sure is a nice colour

If I was only going to have on for the summer I would, driving one in this weather isn't for me (I was looking at them a while ago)

 

[172bagss2]

tbh ill just be enjoying it exactly how it is for a while...

Please do just that.

I am well impressed - I think you've chosen well, it looks like a superb example... I personally love the interior re-trim - it's a classy job done by an obvious enthusiast, exactly the sort of person you want to buy from.

If you don't mind me asking, what did you snaffle it for (in the current market)? - PM me if you don't want to post.

Nice work though! :star:

 

[kyle_sxi]
