Poor choice on the rat look direction, what's the spec on the puma? It's cool as fuck.

Tbh the bonnet's already rat look

If the C wasn't a 1.7 derv then I'd have that

What engine has the B got? It looks as though there's a sticker above the petrol flap and they usually say Diesel.

its 155bhp standard 0-60 7.9s the only thing changed is harnesses for track, hids, miltec exhaust and manifold and a set of turinis getting poweder coated anthracite soon. looking down the lines of throttle bodies for power.

The standard width of my steels were 6" so, a 2"band for the fronts and a 3" band for the rears

This is a 3" band

About £325 including buying the wheels. But i got mine banded when they had an offer on over Christmas last year, hence they were done cheaper than normal
