I'm pleased you are sorted Kam.

Can you tell us why you bought and sold it so quick, I would have thought you'd wanted have hung onto it? Have I missed something.

Oh well, at least it's gone and you can move on.

cheers kam... will make up a sig asap

i have big plans for the car... a mates sellin me an f50 bonnet vent, wolf race wheels, and a fancy red leather interior i've got my eyes on in the local forums... lexus lights oh yeah...




















AS IF!

takin the car to a rolling road over the next month to get her try'd out, see what bhp she currently stands at, first have to get exhaust fixed and fit the manifold... i know the exhaust can make a huge difference to the engine. then a krypton tune. anything else i'm advised to do will be saved for. Considering giving the whole car a spray aswell, i haven't had the chance to clean it up yet so it may not need it.
