Well well well today I travelled all the way to Portsmouth to have a look at this little Gem and before I knew it I bought it!

This will be technically be my 4th car (but my first one thatll actually go on public roads) Yeah the other 3 I bought and fixed up and sold for a profit because that's what u do when none of your family know about cars!

Anyways I've bought something decent! Its an 08 plate active sport with Blue tooth and all the kit! with 30k on thee clock! Its got full history (service 1000 miles ago) and the garage are doing the cambelt and dropping it off Saturday! (and no I didn't pay the price in the window)

Feel free to recommend mods! the only thing I might do is wind deflectors!

Heres some pics!

? Am I missing something here ?

Really, it needs dropped for starters mate I aint too keen on the sticker decals but obviously you do or you wouldn't have bought it. Love the colour though.

In terms of mods mate it really depends on what you want as its your car and your money and you have to drive it. I mean my GP isn't to everyone's taste but I love it have a look at my members motor thread and others for ideas mate.

"boy from my 6thform who does a lot of trolling" It's your own fault, you sent me the link!
It's not good to tell lies!

Why not go the full way?- you could put tinsel and LED's. You could have your own mobile Christmas tree...
Stick with the subtle mods...

It would appear that Dani the Punto has a stalker ------ GreenV8bird.

What do you drive GreenV8bird?

Had a Focus at one point, sold it recently. On the look out for the next ( maybe an mg zr?). Haven't driven in like a month, although I suppose there's only so much you can do on your driveway... Can't drive (legally ) yet either

Remind me... your 16...

Ahh well!

I think ill wait to the delivery so I don't get too ahead of myself!

Yeh mate enjoy the car mate the mods come later when you have the cash

I do love my GP I find it a very fun car to drive

hahahahahaha yeah.. we'll see about that!

Yeah they are awesome! Seen and driven a load before getting this one! but the best all-rounder had to be this one!

Well today I went down to get it!

Found out the dealer has replaced cambelt, water pump , tensioner and the alternator belt for me! (He had the receipts for the new parts and gave me the old ones)
Also passed its MOT with one advisory which was the broken mirror which they also replaced!
So all is good!

just starting to ad some personal touches now!

Nice mate pleased you are happy
