She started off life as a japanese non moving chav mobile





And then i took her in under my wing and startedwork on her
oops, what happened here, snapped Drive shaft





Then for some nice seats



Obviously fitted thm to the car



Then stripped her



Then decided to change a few engine bits about, got a cat back system with a magnex rear box.



Then installed me inlet and a few other goodies





Then got some brakes to componsate for extra power if any.



Loving it



Fitted adjustable spax and koni suspension



Then gapped the bonnet for cooling as the fan had packed up



And got slated and put it down, put all me interior back in and cleaned her up, oh and the fan works








hope you liked, she's probably just gonna stay as she is for now as i like her.

but i may pop in a few more pics as i go along

As Ed says there half leather vectra seats out the GSI's.

Got adapters made up thanks to IAZ, they cost me about £250.

But people never see them as i wear seat covers to not ruin them so there's no point really having them lol.

You can rent him for half hour for £1000,000 ( no sexual acts tho )
