Was heading over to Wakering along the dual carriageway between Southend and Thorpe Bay last night, out the blue I had a rear view full of electric blue gt turbo, big FMIC, tailgating me to start with then backed off and followed me for a couple of miles
Did it have a tungsten grey bonnet & black wheels?
Pretty sure it had black wheels (19 16V phase 1 spring to mind?) on an E plate
That was my old 5 E820 HAD. I sold it to a friend in 2009 from shoebury. His never been a member

New poster! (less than 10 posts)
bringing up a old thread. THIS IS NOW MY CARIt still lives.
Had my eye on this was up for £700 on eBay and gumtree how much did you get it for in the end ?
paid the 700 for it mate, thought it was a steal with tax & mot.
turns out needs some work doing which would have been nice for the seller to be honest and said as i still would have bought it.. but oh well
bit of a project to keep busy now, plan on some tuning and putting back to showroom condition,
I'm glad a member has now got there hands on it. Would be great to see it back how it used to be.
I have a practical performance mag at home where the car was featured for there "how to modify r5 gtt" article in conjunction with bbpt.
I'd dig it out and post sum pics.
did you find the mag with the pics mate?
