Bigpimpings' touring is lovely, Kos has some amazing photos, would love to speak with the snapper.

For me, the winner has to be eko. His car symbolises the zone through and through. From dispair at his chrome turd, contemplating leaving the fold, to sourcing a new car, transferring everything over and a stunning end result, appreciated by everyone. Not only that, but what was transferred over, the m52. Everyone knows the zones penchant for engine swaps. Plus the help from other zoners in getting there. Emotional support, offer with the tea and tools, advice on welding, the use of a garage.

Plus not forgetting the man himself. A regular member, all round nice guy, buyer and seller of parts, provider of advice, attender of meets.

This car wins in oh so many ways. IF anyone disagrees, I'll bash them. Clarksun included. Eko wins FTW end of.

Mods, lock this thread, we're finished here.

eko's gets my vote. Nice clean simple styling and a bit of a story behind it.

Of course my vote will transfer to mine when I find some decent pics of it.

Sherbourne ?
Do you mean Sherborne? Now I' lost!!!

2 entirely different places.

Oh, inbetween blowing bubbles, can you tell eko he's already won and not to 'vote for dips'!!!

What's your preference, Iain??

Now THATS an unuasual choice of rim. Gives a really "I'm fooking serious" look. I'd have never of thought of a minilite style rim. Looks ace though
