Looking good.
That's one seriously tall roll bar!!!

Gives it a slightly



look!!!

and i was told mnr measure people to get the roll bar height correct! You must be near 12 foot!

Nice lookin car tho! Good colours

Welcome to the mad house
Interesting choice of colour

Neat car - nice to see some different colours
One small thing - is that battery cut-off switch going to be OK for SVA sticking out of the dash like that ?

Cracking work.

Interested in the roll bar as someone 6ft2 without one.
- Presumably it was made for you my MNR?
- How tall actaully is it, from the mounts to the top? Also how tall are you and what seats do you have. If you dont mind me asking!

i hope the cut off switch will be ok!

i dont know the measurements of the roll bar but me and my old fella are about 6ft2, we have cobra seats without sliders, and yeah it was made by MNR.

colour wise, i bought the old touring car video (yes, i still have a video player!) and i saw the renault laguna in yellow and blue, thought it would look good!

And i thought you had seen my car
I like yellow and blue too

Nice one. Ive had mine a few months longer but not near the same point as you - i guess im slow lol. All the best for sva.

Cheers everybody, hopefully takin it up to mnr for mark to check it over and get it ready for the SVA over the next few weeks, then wait for march to get an 09 plate!

Nice one! Good colour scheme!
I think the rollbar looks taller than it is from the pics... but ours is also similar...
I'd rather have it tall than useless in a roll though...
