It was a toss up between Nimrods and Compo mo's But I kept edging towards nimrods.. The only think putting me off was I could only get them in 16's
then I came across a set of 15's that where very cheap.. just under £400 new with 195/50/15 tyres..
After a big of haggling I got a set of better tyres in 195/45/15's for free...
Here's what sits behind the wheels
And yes It does need dropping a tad, currently saving for a decent set up, bilstein or gaz (something in that league)
Got rid of the open green filter as It was causing flat spots, Especially in this weather and replaced with this...
got it for just over £70 on ebay, with the air feed and trumpet... Not bad 
Here's where Ive put the cold air trumpet, IMO prob the best place for this car without removing headlights and fog lights 
Opinions are welcome, and I respect that each to there own...
It does look better in the flesh, although the weather isn't too good atm and the car is getting cleaned very very often

I changed my pads yesterday, think they brakes feel spot on now, really good feel etc.. and yes I'm loving having a car that actually handles for a change..
Good wee cars..

acht there's always one. Mo's are getting as common as speedlines and we have a few sets local so I gave it a miss for £150 less too
