^ lol, the front one is how they "should" be from factory, but due to the longer bolts, you can't do it with the rear, it hits things, as its hidden, i thought feck it!

gypo!!

 

[SBV116]

Anymore updates?

Unfortunately not, as the dark nights loomed it got put in the shed, was hoping to get it mapped before winter, but it ain't going to happen until spring! Will drop it off with matt for a week or so in the spring to do the final touches / get it mapped

Dark nights, and saving some money up for next years attack, spent WAY to much already.

Malpas is well rapey

 

[SBV116]

Right folks! Looks like this is going to go pear shaped, few reason's. Firstly my truck i use daily is only doing 31MPG, ludicrous really so i may have to find something else as a daily!! Secondly, the thought of ploughing a couple of K more at least into this scares me.

SO, going to be some bits for sale shortly, if anyone is interested in ANYTHING drop me a PM don't fill here up with requests!, remember everythings new, car has moved literally 50 yards!

Cheers,
Steve

 

[Tony Hunter]

Another one bites the dust.

 

[Daniel]

31mpg is brilliant, what are you moaning about?

Real shame this, had so much promise.

 

[jenic]

Seems such a waste

 

[Gray]

KEV!!!!

Not again!

 

[SBV116]

^ you can buy it if you want? lol! Daniel, i meant 21MPG lol, sorry!

It is mint, but it aint how much it's costing mint, hopefully going to end up with one nice car that i use daily!!

Gray, my choice this time! Honestly piled some mega money into it, no where near finished either! Like M3 money!

 

[Daniel]

At least your car looks like a car. I've put Meg R26 monry into my valver and its just a pile of bits after being stripped down for a 3rd time.

I think you're mental.

 

[Tez.]

Dash strips first dibs please

Piss off, he's not breaking it.

 

[Gaz_]

[SBV116]

Gaz is worse than me imo. but he is right.

 

[Daniel]

[Tez.]

You know you want too

 

[Gaz_]

Whhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttt??????!

I've been good for well over 18 months now, just the coilies on the 197, and maybe that spoiler i have a part no for you to price up

 

[Gray]

LOL at the vulchers who cannot read.

Mikes gotta have new brakes!

What's need to finish the car KEV?!

 

[Daniel]

What's need to finish the car KEV?!

Someone with testicles.

 

[Tony Hunter]

What's need to finish the car KEV?!

That was just going t be my next question.

 

[SBV116]

Not a great deal mechanically, remap and few bits, headlight, few bits and bobs that will all add up, windscreen, inside is a mess!

I am sure there is more by the way, not looked at it for a bit lol.

 

[Gray]

Surely it's worth finishing to try and sell as a finished car? (yes I know they are worth more in bits sadly )

 

[Whiteley]

This makes me sad

 

[lemonnobby]

and me

 

[Will.]

Oh

 

[SBV116]

Thought i should update this a little bit!

I got it in to start removing the bodies, and it had a small lifeline.....

Removed the bodies and cams, put it back to standard engine wise.

12 months MOT and 6 months tax as of the start of feb, done a couple of hundred miles and all good!

Off to tweeks for alignment ( lowered it 5mm the other day at the front ) and then my brother will be the proud owner!

Not such a bad ending really.

Hopefully he will come onto cs, decent upgrade from a 1.1 pug 106 he has had since he passed his test! lol.


Cheer's folks!!

 

[Daz.]

Where was this hiding the other day? I was going to have a shufty!

 

[aucky]

Wasn't he going to sort/save that old Cossie that I saw last time?

 

[SBV116]

^ he is doing! lol, cup is his daily, cossie is a never ending project!!
