yeah, central locking! also i want some good coilovers, nitrons for 1200 quid and a decent exhaust. The soundtrack is pretty dull, even for a standard car. I want to change the wheels as well, never liked the standard ones.

i sprayed one of the vxr220`s a few weeks ago and had a little go in that, bloody hell they fly.

also very light but couldnt do with getting in and out of it everyday, im only 5,11 and not chunky but with my work boots on it was an arse!

wheels will look spot on, painting will only be about £50 if you do the prep work for the roof proffesionally!

Hi Donna.

Well next on my list of must dos is a decent soundtrack from either a Larini or Milteck (sp) exhaust and then hopefully some coilovers so i can drop it down a tad and loose some body roll. There are rear diffusers avail but at the moment they look a bit shit imo. Progress is slow though as everything is so fucking expensive

And still decided to get rid

I was going to comment on the diffuser. There was one at the VXR track day last year that look quite well fitted. I can't imagine it to be cheap though.
