Hi All,

I'm looking to join the fold in the new year and after months of research it is now just trying to find the right car. Does anyone know these cars.

Both look great indeed, I'd struggle to choose between the two, the blue one appears to have had slightly more done tuning wise and the limited run of Speedline wheels fitted and a nicer interior IMO but is slightly more money, if you like blue and can afford it that's what I'd recommend, if not the silver car looks more than capable of giving just as big a grin.

Welcome and enjoy, these are brilliant cars.

Thanks for the advice Lucozade had it up for sale privately not that long ago? Going to try and have a look at both cars over the christmas break smile

its up at a pretty cheaky price when you consider what they paid for it !! if you buy it he has a set of carbon wing ends and rear S flaps that the garage made him take off , i,m sure he would do you a deal for them !! best of luck .

Both good cars at decent prices.

Anyone know what the blue box is attached forward of the intercooler housing is?

Looks like its maybe an anodised oil breather tank.

The oil breather looks stock black. Not sure what that blue thing is. Water injection maybe?

Water injection pumps I've seen are all black and bigger than that but I guess it could be, sometimes those fancy anodised fuel regulators look like that size but wouldn't normally mount there.

Enjoy biggrin

I did drop you my details but I'm presuming after seeing the car you didn't need much convincing.

I've got a few carbon bits for the car, namely wing end plates and rear s-flaps if your interested.

Oh, plus I've still got the seat booster (good for long journeys) and leather head rests.

Well done Richard.
I can vouch for Lucozade's car as i spent most of last year doing exactly the same to my car, of the same colour, as he did. Everytime I saw it or he saw mine we copied each other (mainly me copying him) with upgrades here and there. He did end up with more power than me though, but the great news for you is I can confirm he is a very slow driver so the car is definitely well looked after!! (sorry Craig)

I look forward to seeing you out and about enjoying surely your best car purchase decision!
