Post a picture of your car here Part 4 (quote a picture, get a 24h ban!!)

It makes me wonder what does your friend have as his first car, assuming he let you borrow his secondary car. :P

There's one of those very close to where I live (may not be 1992 but the same generation anyway). Jesus, the state of it... rust everywhere, interior is like the inside of a wheelie bin and it's very loud... I have no idea how the owner can drive that.

The 4 GT looks the business, best of luck with it. Was the rear tint aftermarket? Almost makes it look like a commercial.

its a shadowline option - it came as a pack with the brake upgrade, 2-tone alloys and harman kardon surround sound.

its far darker than I expected - you can put your nose up to the glass and still can't see in

Front end Friday!

Fixed the bottom grill and replaced the number plate surround. Still a few more little jobs to do before I'm happy with it. Going for a full valet and detail next.

Where did you get them reg plates Lardy? They look well!

I'm going through a reg plate phase at the minute.

GvidoR

A lot of chrome around the plate though

The colour of them is perfect with that blue but I think it would've gone better on the stock wheels.

What size are those alloys?

5500

There 18s, exact same size/width as oem only difference is offset, 38 on these vs 60 on oem

Newest member of the family. The plan is to build it into a race car over the winter, but until the build starts its great fun for the weekends.

Has a 3sgte (2.0 turbo) full stand alone ecu , 4 pot front brakes and a couple of other tasty bits. Its also gained the nickname "Bangey" to due to Anti Lag, gotta love Anti Lag

Jaysis, been a while since i've seen that e10, that's the woodsport built one isn't it? Was a great looking car in it's day, must be great blowing people away in it with them thinking she's 1.3

The chap who had it a couple of owners back still has some parts of it for sale on TOC i think, a half cage and a few bits.

Best of luck with it

65 km and counting. An economical company car just means there's more money to spend on my V12 now :cool:

Correct it was built by WoodSport in the UK, Hoping to get the car down to 62-63 second lap on the Mondello National within the year.

Plans for bigger turbo,find a proper diff, maybe move the engine further towards the bulk head, and one hell of a cage which will incorporate all the suspension pick up points, and hoping to have some pretty cool aero on it too.

Always had a soft spot for those yokes, and even I don't know why, because they're definitely not pretty!

Staph

They are definitely not the prettiest, but there's something about them! I like something a little off-beat and when I started looking into Subaru's, it just ticked a lot of boxes.

@Davycc, that's what it is.

And my 318is after sitting up for a year being cleaned up and taken by its new owner on Sunday.
