Looks fantastic. Be carefull with it inthe current low temps'. You can soon end up backwards in a ditch with cold tyres if your not used to a light revvy car.

Did it pass IVA with the fog light at that angle? They're usually pretty keen on the lens being vertical... or is it just the picture.

Looks great. What bodywork have you fitted? did you scratch build the chassis? like said above - go easy in this cold ice weather. would be a shame to wreck it when you just finished it

Top looking car there mate... 8 months corr I'm jealous you done well, really well!


big_l - 19/12/10 at 12:22 PM

Like I said Mk body work . And the chasis was scratch built not by my hands but some one else .. Thanks for the replies guys it's nice to no what people think ?

Good or bad ?
