OK, It's not mine anymore but it's still very close to my heart!
It does belong to another zoner so still qualifies! winkeye

I have not got any recent pics as I was waiting for the Hartge skirts to go on (Image ANT) but here are a few after the stripes were laid.

Think my vote would be for Dips blue and white one

Just an idea, but could we not have a poll with everyone who enters, and then a scoreboard to say who is winning and so on? :?:

Cheers :D

The piece of aluminium is to stop damage to the bumper whilst backing up to trailers etc.
You buy them in the shops but they are generally rubbish and rust,I decided to make my own using alloy checker plate,looks nicer as doesn't rust.

:D Cheers corky... rags to riches sums it up nicely I think... even if its only half way there atm :lol:

I have to say, there's some very tasty cars in this topic, but nothing (visually) that pushes any boundaries... even bigpimpin's is externally just another tech 2 touring.

My favourite for some reason is Greentourings, nice and simple, very damn clean (not many people have an engine bay that spanking)... a good honest decent 316 with nothing to prove... winner.
