haha im exactly the same, i saved some birthday money especially for fuel during show season :P

Is this show season now?

[QUOTE=L_E_W_I_S;4310977]Ahh no way :( You can sneak out while he's away :P


haha i'd get lost lol, not got the petrol we away to chipwizards on tuesday and funds are very low until payday:n::n::n::n:

Aww shame haha, hope your going to FCS then! :D

Well have a safe journey :)

Ive just got some images of how my car stands now for you guys to see :)

Im in a bit of a dilemma, im unsure if i can afford the insurance on a VTR so when september comes when i wanted to buy one, im no longer certain i can. SO... do i keep modifying the 1.1 for a year more or so, or just save every penny i can so i can buy a faster car?

Cheers
Lewis

looks pretty good, get a VT kit on it tho

i thought you got ridiculasly low insurence quotes? and are you going off to uni definatly? if so you want something tahts going to be reliable for when your down there, so if you want a faster car then your guna need someting in good nick and reletavly low mileage, wh not just drop a bigger engine into yours?

Correct, my B'day was before show season

Cheeers, i was going to then i changed my mind, was going to be quite costly. It was that or VTS wheels and T1R tyres :)

I like that idea but my parents would hit the roof if i even mentioned it, besided i think for the costs involved id probably be able to get a VTR. Or a shot in the dark is a Furio/westy with a 16v still registered as a 1.4

And im deffo going to uni :\

surelly your parents would be the same with having an car with an undocumented converson though? or equally as unhappy with you having a vtr as appose to doing a conversion your self? Yea you could end up basiclly doing a swap from your car to a vtr + or - a few hundred quid as they dont really differ in price.

There arent any more shows near me :(

you cant even tell the difference between 1.1 and vtr engine from just looking at it, you could get your car to full vtr spec anyway, all you need is rear disc beam and engine. sleeper ftw! :)

your car looks amazing, makes me want to get a 1.1!

Put it this way, my parents dont mind if im not getting an old car with high milage. They wouldnt have a clue if an engine swap had been done. But to do mine would be impossible to conceal the operation and where would i get £300 from :(

If i sold my Desire for £1600 i could buy a VTR for <£1200 with decent miles and age. Then the spare £400 will help towards insurance. Ill see my circumstances when insurance is getting close.

yea i see your point like, owell like you said see what the crack is come renewal time, what price's are you getting now? also are you wanting them bush's changeing?

£1200 will not get you a decent vtr, it will get you a W reg with about 90k on it also i'll fit the engine for ya :)

DId a dodgy one for uni and admiral wanted £1800 for a VTR :s

And i wont bother with the bushes mate cheers anyway

I am the master of bargains, i will get a good VTR with the money.

And yea you supply the engine you can do what you like to my car :D

your car is exactly how i want mine to end up looking :)
haven't a clue where to start haha! where in boro are you from mate?

Lol its actually quite simple

1) Buy alloys you want and refurb them
2) Have your car lowered
3) Choose an exhaust system

And im from Ormesby, how about you? Need a meet up sometime :)

Cheers mate :D

Lol thanks mate appreciate it
