News : Simon's Black Lamin-x loverrrr GONE new car here!!! - Saxperience

Simon0014 · 12th November 2011, 19:01

Right went to look at a dirt cheap black furio today and decided i'd buy it after getting him down on the price a bit

It has 97k on the clocks, part service history, gold Speedline Corse alloys, gash interior and the body work needs some loving but the mechanical sides of everything seems all good apart from a blowing backbox.

I won't have it home until around next weekend as my mate needs to trailer it back as it just ran out of tax and mot a month or so ago.

My plans are to get it through an mot and keep it as a cheap run about for now (will no doubt become a money pit but sod it)

Current spec list

ENGINE

* 1.6 8v (98bhp)
* Early 1.1 box
* K&N induction kit
* Full supersprint race exhaust
* Raceland 4-2-1 manifold

BRAKES & SUSPENSION

* Front lowered 50mm
* Rear gti disc beam lowered 35mm

WHEELS & TYRES

* Gloss white Rallye steels wrapped in Falken ze912s
* Dice valve caps

INTERIOR

* Gti cloth seats with red fleck
* Omp Corsica Wheel rep and omp boss
* Red S1 Rallye carpet
* Mango gear knob
* Custom alcantara gear stick gaiter
* Alcantara wrapped abc pillars.
* Sony headunit
* Sony speakers

EXTERIOR

* Smoked Headlights.
* Lamin-x fogs and headlights
* Smoked side repeaters
* De-Wiper'd
* 106 mirrors with mango caps
* Matt black grill with mango chevrons
* Rear lights tinted all red
* Mk2 spoiler with washer jet hole smoothed
* Matt black boot plinth
* Pressed plates
* 106 Rallye decals
* Aero blades

Heres a few pictures

What do all think? (Shit pictures I know but all I got for now)

You got it!! Looks dirty but I'm sure it will come out lovely with a clean etc mate. The wheels are quite nice too, if they were done anthracite or gloss black and lowered 50mm it will look rather awesome! So glad you got it

Really?! I'd love you forever if you have a passenger side one!! You got a drivers front arch in black or a passenger side headlight trim?

Yeah i like them to but the paint is rather poor on them

I'm hoping this one will be nice to me unlike the mango!!

Cheers mate

Well initial plans get it through an mot, get it decked, nice exhaust, got a manifold ready to decat it but will wait till i get an mot certificate before i do that.

Not sure whether to keep the speedlines or not as they need a few new tyres not sure how many orrr just buy a cheap set of something with good tyres. Also tidy up the bodywork.
