That's a fantastic looking car.
I bet you spent more than £250 on that!

Yeah it looks OK...
It'd be interesting to see what it looks like at Kirkistown, or even better at the Sideways Racing BEC 7s race on 14th of October at Aghadowey
Best of luck

Cheers guys for all the comments
The trusty old right arm polished it up pretty well
Alister - I'll def. be gettin it up to Kirkistone but the bec 7's race......if i crashed my dad would kill me lol, tho i'll be up
there with the rest of the Ali fan club, spectating
DarrenW - It most certainly does
Mad dad - The wheels are 17in wolfrace warrior finished in shadow chrome
StevieB - We bought the rear lights from mac#1, but forgot to order the surrounds! So got some thick plastic pipe and cut them to fit around the
lights. Then covered the pipe with some 1mm aluminium. Was quite pleased with them myself

Very nice looking motor, well done.
Just a comment though about the position of the front wings, they look a bit marginal. The general opinion is that the front edge of the wing should
be ahead of a vertical line drawn from the front edge of the wheel rim. Mine was checked at SVA.

Well spotted wicket, i'll hav a check and see. another worry is that the cycle wings dont cover the edge of the rim, isnt this a fail as well?
Will probably upgrade to the new MK jobbies tho as they look

Just yanking yer chain!!
The car looks very well indeed. Puts mine and the lack of polish to shame!!
If you are stuck for SVA you can have the loan of my 15" wheels, that should mean the rim will be behind the line of the front guard.
All the best

Yeah that'd be great! Also if u could get me the number for the rent-a-cat guy as well. We'll have to have a 7 photoshoot sometime,
it'll be a good excuse to get the polish out

You don't need a roll bar for SVA, that's a feeble excuse, you just like polishing stuff really don't you? There must be a few more
chrome bits you could buy if you really studied hard
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
