cheers ill get some pics of them up next week as the seats are at work. I think I might have sourced a cage as well. The way things are going it might be going down the track route but not sure yet. Going on another track day in January so I can see it giving me the urge to just fully strip it and use it as a tracjk toy.
Getting a bonus soon so Im looking at some bilstiens group N's and a bigger ARB so that combined with the brakes should make it excelent on handaling but im new to all this track stuff so I need to get my reaserch done.

Some wanker ran me off the road
I was on my way to work this morning taking my time and driving normal as its still slippy with all the snow we have had, then some dick starts overtaking all the cars whilst there are cars coming in the opposite direction anyway when he got along side me he had no room so he started forcing me off the road, so I hit the brakes and ended up just mounting the curb and he has scrapped the corner of my bumper, the wing and a bit on the arch. I came to a standstill and got out to check the damage and the guy who hit me just speeded off. I’m stood there fucking gobsmacked about to jump in the car to chase him but then loads of cars stopped to see if I was ok and they couldn't believe what had just happened. Anyway no one got his reg so I’ve just left it. Needles to say I’m pissed off, most of it will t-cut out but the bumper has a really deep scratch. The guy was driving one of the really old Vauxhall combos and if I see him again I’m going to break his fucking neck.

that sucks, although you probably did the sensible thing in not chasing him, best to take a little bit of damage rather than bin it in a ditch on the icy roads!
hope it t-cuts nicely mate, would suck if it didnt

Tell the police, if you're lucky you may catch the car on CCTV.

Its on country roads mate so I dont think there will be any cctv, but I have an idea who it is now and where hes from and you can bet a million pound he has no insurance. Police are usless round my area mate but it will all get sorted out.

cheers dude
Ok so hears a pic of the damage caused, it looked worse at the time as the plastic trim from under the headlight was hanging off. But Ive managed to get all of the marks of with good old t-cut so Ive been very lucky as it could have been allot worse.
Heras a pic of the bucket seats I bought but Ive now decided to sell them (there for sale in the for sale section if anyones interested http://www.saxperience.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=280197)
