Looks great mate, bet it goes pretty well too!!

Personally I would change the headlights as they don't really go with the track type look the cars got going on with the buckets and cage etc.

Will keep an eye on this

To start, I like my pictures and its always going to be picture heavy haha!

Decided to start work on my interior the yesterday i know its only spraying atm but i thought i'd spray the center console and the two side vents a nice red which is going to be my theme inside .

Sorry for the really crappy quality just took them quick on my phone!

Right hit a problem the other day . Basically my petrol gauge was showing that I had fuel in the car but when I went to start it, it wouldn't work, so after playing with the car and getting a new crank sensor i finally decided to try and see if adding more fuel made it go which it did .

Again the same problem happened today where the fuel gauge shows that I have more than enough fuel for the car to go yet it didn't again until I added fuel. However, when i'm driving the car for the last time before I turn it off and then it doesn't start, the car doesn't splutter or make any noises to show its got no fuel which i'm finding really odd :/.

Has anyone else had this problem or know what the F**K is up with my Shitroen?

Sorry for the rant I hope everyone understands what I just wrote

[slow-norris]

looks sweet reminds me of my old silver mk1

[Dannnn93]

Just something quick I know its late and I know its not in the right section before people start to kick off on one post as people are tired and grouchy as its way past there bedtime but yeah...

Got a VTR engine on 87k if anyone fancies it will upload a picture on request and also a powerflow full system de-cat for an 8v again will upload a picture if one is requested

Just one other note... My little pocket rocket here kept up with a Seat Leon Cupra R the other day and also beasted a 11 plate BMW 3series nothing special but awwwww yeeeeee!

[Dannnn93]

Right yesterday I gave the car a good clean and decided that I was going to mesh my grill. Was really un sure of the result but I do kinda like it now but it was dark last night when I managed to finish it so I'll upload some pictures of that later on today!
