Default Oh my god, me old car!!

Well can't believe its been this long since I 've seen her, it must of been 5 comming on 6 years ago that I sold this, after blood sweat and tears getting it to how I wanted it(ask Daz!), only to sell it 6 months later for my Type R.

There's been a few changes since I had it such as the FMIC, chromed rocker cover and induction kit, everything else is how I sold it, very pleased that the full respray has stood up to the times.

What do you think?

Looks like its had plenty of money thrown at it, but it still looks like the driver will mainly be wearing burberry

Looking good, I'm sure all of my old cars have been scrapped by now.

The FMIC looks a bit wonky!!!!!

It was about 220 bhp when it left me, not sure how much now though, it did have a six speed box when I had it, trying to find out if its lasted.

It was a Calibra turbo conversion, made it a very fast car but the traction was terrible!!

Nothing that can't be sorted pretty easily after all the practice we have had

Last I heard of her still being on the road was a phone call 2 years ago from a bloke in Ireland, he had her garaged up for 2 years.
