    Re: few pics of my new build

    thanks for comments, the engine bay was resprayed by myself but i left the scuttle area as that just needs a good clean. im trying my best to get to nat day but works winning the battle right now. the 5 will not be there though. next year it will be up and running properly.

    Well Phil, after meeting member Alistair Gresty and taking a deposit for my car, I had serious second thoughts. The emotional attachment was too great in the end, and gave him his deposit back! Alistar has had a private apology, so this is his public apology, sorry dude for messing you around a few months back, I did feel a cnut.
    got it booked in for an mot on wed , so we shall see what happens.

    i dont use it, this is the reason i have to stop ploughing bits onto it. been around 5's for 3 years and i have never really been able to open the garage and just go for a drive and its a complete waste, so time to start enjoying it more. once these parts arrive from mike it wont be off the road for a while.

    Re: few pics of my new build

    Well after the turbo decided to eat itself at national day and only leave me with the housings I had to buy a complete new core. I picked it up last night from turbo developments after a very short turnaround so I'm very happy now. Just got to clean all the mess from the engine bay and fit it.
