Hi All
Not posted in ages but my mate finally got his mini van on the road yesterday so thought Id post a few pics. Only thing that he is waiting for is his rear inner arches in carbon other than that its complete.

Pics tell the story really but my favourite bit is the full carbon front end! All the work was done by himself but I think the engine kit was supplied by Z cars

That is cool. Is he waiting on carbon door cards or something? I'd imagine not painting the whole of inside of door was a conscious decision. Bit odd if not lol...

You know I never even noticed the insides of the doors? They do look a bit unfinished? Knowing him he will be doing something with them, doubt he will leave them like that but who knows?

Seats arent really my thing either but in all honesty I didnt even notice how uncomfortable they were because of the back breaking ride, the fact it was 300 degrees in the cabin and my ears were bleeding! Im getting old cos I couldnt have taken more than 5 mins in it!

Awsome. Seats are cool. Love Kirkey seats. Tad uncomftable with no padding but suits the car.

Just a remapped K20 at the moment pushing out around 200bhp I imagine but the car is pretty light so it is pretty nippy

That is seriously cool.

The front arches don't appear to line up very well though.

This also along with the doors, and comfy seats.

Other than that it's pretty cool.
