Look nice Do you have any other pictures from different angles? Were you on the L2B last year? If not I think there was another one in that colour (I could be wrong) Has someone pushed in the passenger side bonnet grill?

i think i remember it, did it also have white stripes down the sides at the bottom?
looks better now

have you thought about doing the windscreen surround in black? think that would finish it off...

As I remember it......

[Joe-Turbo]

seen the car a few times on previous meets, was never keen on the white stripes. Have you had the car on a rolling road yet to see what the power output really is?

Like it. A lot. But why are your posts so difficult to read?

Ah, Tesco blue!

[chris_vx220turbo]

no i have not had it on the rollers yet. it is a stage 2 so should be around 240bhp. raced my mate stage 2 but he has a vxr turbo as well and pulled on him so it is a quick stage 2. gettin stage 4 donr in about 2 months so lookin for 295bhp. does not look good in the old pics but i know it could look very nice again so that why i got it.

Wasn't this a cat d?

[chris_vx220turbo]

yes this is a cat d but only because when u first start get a new car, most insurce group within the first year off the car life. if u claim on the car for and body thing they just replace the whole car. it happened to me on my bmw. i seen the pics off the vx from where the man that own it at the start and what he did to it. all that he did was hit the drive side coner on the clam and took the light out. so that why it a cat d but really it should not be for as little repair it needed. but that life. does anyone on here know about this car before i got it. would be nice to know things.
