My New(ish)stilo

When i bought here she had no alloys, brakes were sqeeky, needed a new headlight bulb, some fuses were blown & tail pipe was limp (as usual). But now she is just right oh by the way i crashed my first baby ("the beast") and she was perfect.

so here is the beast

Thank you very much

It aclually took me a week and half to get the claws but during that time I had put the car up for sale on here but i didb't stop searching. Then started searching for alloys on here and there was a guy (markbognor) who had started a thread about how much he hated the claws and wanted to get rid off them. so i pm'd him and he said no one was willing to travel so he still had them we agreed to meet half way and do a swap steelies for claws both with tyres and some cash on top and thats it really. Oh he did about 100mile and i did 150 for the meet

Thanks. when i get my finances sorted will be getting some abarth side skirts, badge-less grill,(maybe) lowering 30mm and a backbox with a straight pipe and lastly some blinds.

at the moment i have shortened the tail pipe by just ging it a little snip with an air saw. You can just about see the end of it when looking at the back.

Its the same as Muppet42's 2003 1.2 3dr 16v Stilo Active in Grigio Steel but with Claws and Muppet get some 17's on they do the car justice.
