Rather chuffed with it.











Goes like the clappers...still getting used to it...traction control is deffo bonus.
Thanks to Brian & Dave at Greens of Rainham for a great deal and a great buying experience.

I did indeed, about 12:30 - that's Dave the sales chap in the last picture pretending he's Eric Morecambe.

It is soooooo hard sticking to 4000rpm for a thousand miles...

It's an '04 car and the bonnet is from a VXR.
Greens painted it in house & got the colour absolutely spot bollock on - red can be a bitch to match too.

Mine is also one of the few 'ros with lacquered paint on the underside of the bonnet too.
