I like. V6 from a C5?

[CooperS]

like the idea, although the front is a cross between a snow plough vs. darth vendors hench men helmets.

Saying that i want more pictures and story as i bet its one heck of a project.

Looks like an impressive amount of work; I've struggled to change a headlight bulb in a C2 considering the lack of space under the bonnet. This must be an enduring labour of love...

[clonmult]

Good luck with the project. That'll be a barrel of laughs once up and running, and I'll echo other comments - try to keep it looking as stock as possible. Totally awesome Q-car if you can do that!

not too sure on the styling but thats only because i like my cars that are a little less loud.

but im impressed with the v6 conversion.good work and keep us updated

i use to love my c2 gt

[Hitch78]

Very nice - such a momentus upgrade affords those visual updates and whilst they're not subtle there is an element of understatement to that new front compared to the crap that most people stick onto these things. Looks well finished too.

Keep the pics coming, and good luck.

Not keen on the front bumper but bet that engine will be great fun!!

[paul26982]

alright m8, just up the road from you in seaham' will have to take me out when its finished

[OlberJ]

Nice work. What gearbox does it use, the C2 or the V6? Have you got/kept the flappy paddle system?

[ih8thisname]

Jesuswow!

Looks a fantastic project, will be reading intently!

[Jessop]

Hi mate!

I only live down the road in Redcar, you might have even seen my little AX, or my mates renault extra (turbo) van knocking about?

Would be good to see this in the flesh sometime.
When do you think it may be ready? =]

Hope you had a godo new year dude.

Hi Guys thanks for the comments, The styling is an aquired taste a bit like marmite!!!
Main reason iv gone for this front bumper is purely for clearance issues behind bumper/ engine bay and to get plenty air flow threw the radiator/engine bay.
The full running gear in this car (engine,gearbox,shafts hubs etc) are all taken from a peugoet 406 coupe had an absolute nightmare with the wiring side of things due to the C2 multiplex system!!!!
I got around this by completely rewiring the car with the 406 loom and chopping out various 406 parts i don't need,
I'l dig out a load more pics and post them soon.
Car hopefully complete within next month (just when i get time)
Many Thanks gary

[arryb]

Wow - insane project Not too keen on the looks (I'm a big sleeper fan) but if it's functional, I'll let you off

More pics please

[J400uk]

Thats impresssive, should be a little rocket once its finished! Post pics and let us know when its done

[Danger_Mouse]

Gary, that looks great mate.

The front looks suitably sinister based on the engine!

Can we get more pics of the build as it progresses please?

[Killer2005]

Like the car, looks awful though. Fine project though
