got yourself a nice car there, Sk8!

 

[sk8funk]

well i thought paying £2000 on ebay for it was steep tho when i collected the car and drove it, i had the biggest grin on my face all along. well i didn't enjoy it long coz i booked it str8 to Van Aaken to get it looked at and it's coming out today

Oh just one thing i see ya all talking about skeggy am a bit thick, euh.. is it a meeting somewhere? and if so where?

 

[Southey]

hay mate!!

Like every1 has sed Very Nice car.

Neway im just wondering how did u attach the front splitters?

Im having a little trouble puting mine on.

cheers mate

 

[sk8funk]

hey Southey, well the truth i have done nothing to the body as everything was already there. tho it looks fairly easy but i wouldn't know to tell the truth. looks like 2 screws underneath and the 2 like metal bars at the front and thats it.

 

[Southey]

rite ok well im guna giv it a bash at the weekend so wish me luck.

cheers mate

Skeggy weekender. Check the events section. You'll have to be quick with your booking though!

2 grand aint that bad mate cus I bet it cost the original owner thousands to get it like that! Sounds like VA have made good money outta that car

 

[sk8funk]

yeh it cost him all n all about £8000 but dont have the deffo figure as was chatting to the blokey from VA, yeh they made good money out of doing the car up but they also did some one off bits for him as extra not being done on normal conversions. Yeh am glad i got it tho i could tell it wasnt really looked after by prob previous owner so took it to VA for a good check up. hope to get it back to its former glory and then start planing wot next to do to it

So is that one of the first HP Turbots?

Its lovely! I dont think Id want to do anything on the exterior!

 

[blink_82uk]

sweet lookin car, looks cool not to sure about the splitters but thats jus my personal choice, was jus wondering tho noticed in the tech spec that it says its a 1108cc 16-valve??? thats not right is it? tought the only 16v you got was the 1.2 from the punto could be wrong though

Good luck with that VA checkup! Hopefully there will be no major probs but it prob has been thrashed cus I know if my cinq had a turbo I'd thrash the ******** off it

They bloke sounded like a boy-racer, and if he read Max power then he probably was one :-(
