ST engine fits straight onto my mounts, I did get offered an engine cheap and my mate can do it in a day but I decided against it. 2.1 ST Turbo would be better Flutter ftw

Graham, looks lovely.
Where did you get your wheels from? And can you get them in 16"?

Thanks mate.
I think you can, but when I was looking (granted I was impatient and didn't look for long) they were all in 17's purely because they mostly go on Cossies and anything below a 17 on a Cossie is seen as homo.
I'm sure I saw it on a website selling Compomotive wheels before, but then you'd have to buy new and they are over a grand just for the wheels from most companies.

Kano is right, they 100% make them in 16"s for ford fitment. What fitment are you after? If you go on compomotives website you can pick and choose.

I originally wanted 16's but these come up cheaper, I think 17's look better on it anyway.

Not much happened lately, still don't know whether to keep it or not, but that's something I'll think about, but for that reason I'm a bit reluctant to make any major changes atm incase I decide to sell for something with more power.
Only a couple of things, new rolling pic, will do for now:
Bought these parts from my mate:
Gonna get a different backbox though as I don't like that one. I want a 2.5" outward rolled ideally but think I'm gonna end up going to an exhaust place anyway as everyone with a Miltek backbox is wanting silly money.
Polishing session....then it rained

Specs as in, options like A/C etc? In which case there are loads. Interior wise you've got different seats, cloth, half leather and full leather, then different colours of the seats, facelift and pre-facelight, different colours of dash on the facelift, loads really!

Went and picked up my new addition from the Isle of Sheppey yesterday...

I didn't look at the cars as I didn't wanna be tempted into buying more bits! Just spotted the interior on eBay, rang the bloke to see if it was still available and knocked him down and picked it up!

Nah mate didn't want full leather. I like that look of leather more than the feel of it so half leather is a good compromise I thought! Pfft, pre facelift ftw
