Not on PH, I really should get around to it though. There's a few pages here though:

Thank you smile

That's lovely. If mine I'd take it back some more. Standard wheels lose the chin spoiler etc. yours looks like a great base car to make a really nice standard turbo if you get me? Anyhow each to their own. Enjoy.
I do like how they look in standard form, but I do love the wheels so they're staying!

Yeah the two guys of Trotters Cars (I Kid the not) managed to haggle themselves down which was quite impressive. The journey down was longer than expected as I missed a turn off and ended up taking a massive diversion to Kendal! Can't remember exactly how long it took but I think we added nearly an extra 100 miles.

Trip back we decided to take the A68. Absolutely brilliant drive. Roof down (I was in the Mx5) following the scoob in the dark. Was brilliant! Not sure I'd be rushing back to Scunny though!
Disaster hehe I've done similar in the past.

I do love a good blat in an MX5, I had a mk1 before this scoob smile Brilliant little cars.
Yes, Shorpe, much like Grimsby, is indeed a dump.

Been on a fair few hoons recently, courtesy of cheap V-power biggrin
The car has been well behaved, with the exception of an alternator failure a couple of weeks ago.
Fitted a replacement in the blistering cold, then realised it was a 2 pin alternator, and my loom had a 3 pin plug! d'oh.

It's a good thing you can pick them up for only £30 hehe


The "why are you lying in the middle of the road?" shot:

Mild grubbyness:





I'm slacking, I need to get it caked in mud sometime.

I've also found this car makes whoever is driving behind me act like a total bellend. The odd teenage lad in a hatchback wanting a go now and then, but mainly it's older blokes in people carriers desperately wanting to get ahead of me at the lights etc. I just let them get on with it, they do make me laugh though hehe

She's still going strong and without fault! (touchwood) Treated to new Yokohama AD08s all round a little while back too, the handling is fantastic and I highly recommend them. 8 months on and this car still never fails to make me grin, every drive is an occasion.
