My first fast car!

[TobyLaRohne]

Hey guys, just wanted to share some pictures of my new car with you, to say I'm proud to of worked to earn this car is an understatement! The best thing is out here in Qatar, a full tank of Super is about 11 pounds!
Anyway I took some pictures at the weekend and here they are!






Modifications wise the previous owner fitter a carbon splitter, sills and the largest K&N filter I have ever seen! I won't be making any further changes to it other than lots of waxing and cleaning.

[TheLordJohn]

Nice!
What do you'd out there? OOI.

[GarryA]

Awesome car, love the colour too.

It cost me £13 to fill up my scooter yesterday lol.

[Altrezia]

That looks bloody lovely - nice job

[GALLARDOGUY]

Very nice. I like the wheels. Would get them powder coated black if it were mine.

Congratulations.

[TobyLaRohne]

Thanks for the kind words guys! I work in construction. I took a lot more pics but the Mrs is also posing a little in those and I know what pistonheads is like if you post a pic of the mrs online so that won't be happening! I think I agree with the wheels maybe being done black or dark grey.. But all in good time, I wanna enjoy it, get used to it and maybe later if I want to refresh its looks a bit I'll consider it. I still can't believe its mine, feels like I'm going to get a call any minute by a rental company asking for it back! Haha

Love the colour. What sort of price do they go for out there?

[northandy]

Lovely car in a great colour, congrats!

[wackojacko]

Nice, lovely colour.

Good stuff, Timberlake.
Seriously though, that is an awesome car and you've worked hard for it!

[JPearson]

That looks awesome

[TomV8]

Looks great!

Am very envious, I'm glad a private sale has worked out well

Over here in KSA we're pretty much restricted to new or expat-owned used cars. Taking a punt on a local owned used car requires balls of steel and a deep wallet (and a wife with more patience than mine...!)

I'm going to have to continue to work hard too to pay for the rest of it!

The chap I bought it off was a real nice guy, a Jordanian, and after a 10 minute conversation with him you could tell he was a straight shooter and had a genuine passion and knowledge about cars, he wasn't one of the guys out here who buy a car because the papers say its faster than the neighbours then proceed to tear its arse out at every opportunity to try prove it.
I had everything checked out at Chevrolet too without his knowledge and it all came back exactly as he said. Its a new league of car to me and it is constantly making all sorts of noises I'm not used to, but they're all exciting!...I've never had a car come alive when you push the revs up a bit, it really feels like you're driving a family car one minute then the next it becomes a frikken exocet missile!!!

[Vulgar LS2]

Wow, that is very very nice.

[TobyLaRohne]

I've photoshopped the wheels on a pic to black, will post a pic up soon, same with the Engine.

[P K Wright]

Nice car mate, congrats, I really like the wheels in silver!
