My Euro inspired Trooper: sale thread now up

[Llardy]

Hi Folks,

been a while since i posted on here, a few of you will know my last beast that turned out to be a right shitter:



anyway, i couldn't resist so i went out and bought another white one. But a VTR this time.

ive owned it for about a month now, it was completely standard when i bought it. some service history and 57k on the clocks. i payed £1800 for it but the body work is absolutely mint (no pics unfortunately)

list of mods so far:

GAZ GHA coilies
lowered 80mm on back and 65 front (front is going down more)
gloss black vts wheels
gloss black roof (de-aerialed)
tcut rear badges
De-wipered rear
what i believe is a piper backbox with straight through centre section (bought 2nd hand and no labels on the box)
angel eye front lights (came with car)
de- badged grill painted gloss black

Pics (i-phone quality):















i also bought this lil gem today for £150. im using it as a parts car basically:




anyway let me know what you think, and before anyone says anything, the next thing to be sorted is the rear parking sensors.

Liking the White vtr apart from the thing handing from the rear tow eye.

Blue one looks a bargain for £150, was that picked up from round the westgate area?

Ye I've got a replacement bumper, just need to get it painted

[Llardy]

update:

I've nearly finished my custom bootlid now. shortened the recess by 100 mm and waiting for it to get painted. comments welcome

[JoshFurioBrookes]

Looks good, how are you going to have the numberplate lit?

[Llardy]

I've shortened the boot plinth too so it uses the original number plate lights
