For the people that haven't been around that long, remind us how old you were when you started it?

Yes, loving the wheels and the offset. What are they?

Good effort on the car. Wish i had that opportunity at your age! I had moved out and was slumming it in london at your age!

There was a good few years of messing around, gathering parts, deciding what to do, buying other cars to distract me, then last year i bought a new chassis from Aries and got off my arse But yep, I joined the forum in December 2003!

They are Compomotive CXs. 13x5.5 ET19 front and 13x8 ET-6 rear Cost me £75 (they aren't in great condition....). I'm a bit of a wheel-whore at heart and I couldnt turn them down

I'm technically moving out to Bath in August but with all the cars here I doubt they'll keep me away long
