Mate, if you could do a sig pic for me, I'd be very happy!

Shame my camera is a bit rubbish, the car looks orange....bit dull innit!

I still fancy a cabby at times, but I love my car. And I've spent SO much time AND money on it now, I don't think I could part with it!


Thanks Reedy!

Thanks Jon, I try to keep it clean!

Josh, cheers mate. I'm loving it on the BBS's too mate.

Gonna get the BBS's refurbed too, to make them mint.

Should look good. Then with the 2.5 in very soon, I'll be almost done and can buy another!

It's Stanmer Park mate.

As you go up Lewes Road from Uni, round the corner towards Sussex Uni ( :gay: :shoot2: :flipbird: ) turn left just before the bridge which the A27 goes over. It's signposted!

B-Roads......nothing like as good as back home near me, it's brilliant there. The back roads from Brighton to Eastbourne are quite good! Just before my written off Cav was taken away from me, I took it down there......had the brakes glowing red and smoking to f**k! So funny. Some good drops off the edge too as you approach Eastbourne!

I got one of those apple mint air freshners too!! Been using them ones since 1999 when I had my first E30! I remember when I first bought the car, it had a really nice smell in it, so searched high and low for a freshener the same!!
