All headlights say their make, you need to find some that say "depo" or "lucas"

Nah I sold it in February to pay for the Corsa C. It was an alright car, but I wanted something faster!

I can't comment on the tyres tbh, I had 195/45 on them. They did the job pretty well I thought, obviously the ride was quite hard with them but it will be harder with 40 profiles. But bearing in mind I haven't been in a car with 40 profiles on so don't know how much harder it is.

Adam, I told you I win, you bufty

Not a problem

Cheers, glad you like It'll make no end of difference when you get the Softstars on. Is it lowered at the moment?

Nice one, coilovers are the way to go tbh, I was intending on getting some for the C but for now the springs are perfect for me.

Sean's is a proper beauty

In the short term I've not got big plans tbh, leaning toward a straight through centre section but that'll probably be it for a while. Further down the road I'll get jiggy with the engine. Not earning enough to go that far yet Umming and arring about getting the arches and skirts painted.

I was only thinking just now what they'd be like in white, but I've not long had them done Silver and white is a nightmare to keep clean so Silver will do Plus silver wheels is becoming a less common thing on modded cars nowadays anyway.

How about yo, got much in mind?

Sounds really good what you want to do Ill have to keep a close eye on ya thread Whats BHP on it now? Is it about 125bhp?

Well,for mine Im wanting the Softstars first and the obviosly drop it more,then im wanting some Depo`s and some MHW rear lights and then i reckon thats done for me

Ill enjoy it for a couple of years with me not been able to insure anything quicker Then probs get 1.6 sport in a diff colour, (probs black) I dont really wanna do owt to the 1.2 engine so ill have to wait,my car atm is mostly for looks and not under hood lol

Enjoyed speaking to ya pal

Cheers Not sure if I have a project thread, if I do then I don't know what I did with it Yeah standard is 123bhp, we usually have a rolling road day in November down this way so I'll see what it really is then

That sounds pretty nice, if I was keeping my old one I would have got MHW's for it! That's a good tactic tbh, exactly what I did with mine. Made it look how I wanted and then built up the no claims for two years so I could get something better

Thanks, likewise from me to you
