My Project

Post by Nicky »

Okay As Some Of You Already Know The V6 Is Going To A New Home (Paul) Due To Trying To Lowering Our Monthly Outgoings. Running 3 Cars One Being A V6 Is Taking Its Toll...And With Shane Redtopping The SRi The Most Logical Thing To Do Is To By A 2.0 16v And Nick His Lexmaul Manifold And Exhaust System :D

Some Pictures Just To Show Her Before We Even Start,

And Proof That Some Cavvys Do Have Wheel Arches

Never Been Thrashed....It Belonged To A Member Of The God Squad (As Told To Us!!!) And Before That A God Squad Leader :lol: :lol:

Not Bad For £325 With Tax Until End Of June And MOT Til November.
