I love black mk2 furio/vtr/vts's. Looks so much better with the VTR alloys on. What's it like compared with the 1.1?

i was looking at those headlights on ebay too do they use the motor adjustment in the standard headlights?

How much did the front headlights set you back at mate?, i did mine myself but regret it now because when your up close they look shite tbh, glue specs all over etc, yellow rear badges would look the sex i reckon

, i've just done this on my car and it looks awesome, i'll post a pic up over the weekend

yeah just a straight swap basically...think there's a guide on here but it's dead simple any ways...and to answer your question (if im thinking of the right part) it clips in nicely.

thanks mate...yeah soon hopefully, thinking of spraying it red or yellow...haven't decided yet though.

mattman1990 · 19th February 2010, 20:23

Ok, so I had my MOT last week and my car failed...expected it really so wasn't too surprised, I had to pay out for the following though:
* Windscreen damage = New windscreen - £105
* Nearside and Offside Headlamps not in good working order affecting beam image = Labour - £22ish
* Exhaust failed on leak of gasses, noise and emissions = New Standard Exhaust - £110

I also had an advisory for my engine mounts...they told me that the mounts had completely worn away and the engine was resting on the chassis....this wasn’t a failure though...but I had it fixed this morning and it cost me £94...

And now my car is totally different to drive before it would rattle shake and vibrate...but now it is so quiet it’s like a different car.

On the down side though..... i had to pay £822 for a years insurance..

haven't written on here for a while....small update.... i got rid of my hideous gear knob and replaced it with this one...

thanks mate....keep lookin around, hopefully one will crop up for you...just look on ebay, auto trader and local car dealers

mattman1990 · 18th October 2011, 19:04

Now for sale £895

Mot til feb 2012, No tax

Lets start with the bad:

Engine light on though due to a hole in the manifold which has been temporarily patched up. New Lamda sensor needs putting on. but i have bought a new manifold from a mk1 with a lambda sensor which i can supply with the car.

1 dent on the wing and a scratched rear quarter panel.plus one or two other scratches.

I am an honest seller and thats the reason i am being upfront.

The Good:

Has only done 50,000 miles.
Vtr Alloys
Smoked headlights
Meshed Grill
Smoked jewel rears

All in all a lovely car to drive, had it since may 09 and really enjoyed it.
