Alan, that's quite excellent. Don't think I've seen your car before but I really like that  :drinking:

The last pic definitely does the wheels the most justice. What suspension is it sat on?

Its actually sitting on standard suspension at the moment. Needs lowering a bit but its just going to have to wait as August is a killer a month for me.

Thanks for all the kinds words  :drinking:

I used to work at the end of that very road where you took those pictures.

Same here, I used to work just over the blue bridge at the Harbour Exchange towers.

Those wheels are awesome!!! where did you get those bad boys from?

They are BBS LMs and are a bitch to clean. They are reps as real ones cost several thousand which is just silly. Got them from a company called R-Tec (not to be mistaken with the R-Tech remapping company) in St.Albans - http://www.rtecshop.com/

Looks awesome. Think the road sign and some of the other stuff ruin the shot but the skyscape is awesome!
