Scooby Pete Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Yeah they were one of my mums favs, grew up listening to ELO, Genesis, Queen before I found my own music tastes. Not that I don't still listen to them :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matmidgley Posted October 16, 2014 Author Share Posted October 16, 2014 well after you lot killed my topic with your reminisce about your bad music choices :P I have now picked her up! have ordered a new back box and filter. And once the V5C comes I am going to facebook stalk the previous owner as I am unsure if it has had its cambelt changed before I spend that money on upgrades. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Do like the hawkeye the lights make it stand out too. Any mods in the pipeline like alloys or you keeping her the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matmidgley Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 I do like the black against the blue so will be adding black/carbon splitter, diffuser, sti wing, tinting rear Windows then gun metal coloured alloys. But plan to remap first after I find out about timing belt. Also need to replace that head unit or dig out my late 90s hardcore tapes lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 looking good!! - liking the blue black approach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matmidgley Posted October 23, 2014 Author Share Posted October 23, 2014 exhaust fitted defo sounds better but not as loud as I hoped so centre section may be next part to swap and a cosworth filter changed depending on timing belt will have another 500 to spend on few little mods 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quit Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 nice car, my mate has one very similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steveuk260.Esq Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 With 33k on the clock I very much doubt timing belt was changed. As it would be changed at 40k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
