Looks good !! Very purposeful !! Did you buy it for trackdays ?
Just was after something a bit different and back to pure driving and handling. It ticks the boxes and really does feel like a race car so a pretty unique experience! Hope to do a some trackdays and road trips to get it out and about. 
Had a great afternoon: what a fantastic car!chrisimp said:
I like it, is it yours? Bet that's fun going over the speed humps or is it just used for comp?
More details please.
By the way, which photo site are you using for hosting your pics?
I see your (like others) your Photobucket ones have disappeared and been left with that message box.
There is a way round it that I've found to keep your pics from PB, but they'll probably come after me if I give away details.

That's Joe Gowland's old G15. Some transformation!

Hi! Ive started to use postimages.org seems easy after getting use to it, confusing at first but that could just be me!I like it, is it yours? Bet that's fun going over the speed humps or is it just used for comp?

Yep it is joe's old car, and been mine now for 7 years or so. Its currently going through some more changes over the winter again but as it sits its 930cc supercharged with nitrous, running through fuel injection. its ride height is 'aired out' as the kids would say, it has air suspension fitted so running height is a normal usable level! no comp use purely road use.
Cheers!

Spotted in Northamptonshire on Friday night...
Ha ha! That was me doing some late shopping. The car is hopefully soon to recieve a 2.5 litre engine from Raceline.
A Raceline 2.5 in that is going to be comically fast.
In the same spot a few weeks before there was an E-type.... wasn’t yours as well was it?
I wouldn't have been far away - Waitrose or Aldi. I do also have a TVR V8S but not an E type, or a reserved parking space!
Ref the Raceline 2.5, I'm hoping that will make it properly quick. The existing 2.0 is OK, but has very narrow power band coupled with ratios slightly too wide apart. The 2.5 will have VVT, which the existing ECU is capable of driving, so hopefully a reasonable power spread once it is all sorted.

There’s only so long you can hang around, before you look like you’re trying to nick it Ref the Raceline 2.5, I'm hoping that will make it properly quick.

2.5 should be awesome.
