Was in Colchester town today and saw a black corsa c with all the irmy gear on and white ulti spoke 17" wheels, dont know if they are on here or not, anyway all lokked really good but then i spotted the raised bonnet.

All i could think was why, it looks like someone has fitted the bonnet wrong and just ruined the car IMO

i would like to say that while data logging, the inlet temps were a touch cooler after raising the bonnet. so in my defence its a purposeful thing for my vehicle.
