The car is finally back and sporting a new design !
Discussion
Well its taken 6 weeks to get the got back from the bodyshop but it is looking very new now and I've gone for a new stripe design never done before and have to say, I'm chuffed with it. The design is based on the old Lotus Type 41 from the 80's (nose cone design). Was risky but it paid off !
Its got a long list of changes now its back :
New front and rear clams - Plus pretty much a full respray so looks brand new
Alloys sprayed satin black (hides brake dust!) and very stealth
Red roof has gone and now sports a black one, even more stealth
Eliseparts 5" sports exhaust & de-cat - sounds amazing, best S1 exhaust I have ever heard !!!!
Titan Quick ratio steering rack - 2.25 turns lock to lock, feels really good..
Quick-shift gear stick, the best £35 I have ever spent on the car !!!
Full chrome ally interior kit,
New sill pads

That looks really nice!
When I saw the first pic, with the house reflection, I was thinking 'good god - what scheme is that!!!'
oh yeah, didnt notice all the orange bits, must be the reflection of the house bricks...When I saw the first pic, with the house reflection, I was thinking 'good god - what scheme is that!!!'
Also just noticed I forgot to put the sport 160 logo's back on the side, best do that !

Awesome man, I love it. Black 160's with black wheels rule! That is just gorgeous. Very interested in your views on the eliseparts 5 inch 'zorst.....may well be getting one soon. Congrats on getting it back mate.......Mate, I've said it before..........as a Sport 160 owner it's your job, nay, your vocation, to make the car as loud, unbearable, and generally as anti-social as physically possible!
Mines on the original Janspeed Roadsport at present, which sounds good but must be falling to pieces if it has any innerds left at 43K. The Eliseparts would suit the bill perfectly, especially as I don't do trackdays at present.
Once again mate.......the car looks stunning.

Yep, it sounds AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rather like the Stage 2 exhaust on the S2 - pops and crackles like mad 
....I'm soooooooo tempted! 
Looks great in the pics Oly having only seen it in the flesh in the dark. Although it does look rather good in the dark with the sliver stripes glinting away. It's beauuuutiful
