Dec 0 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Right, so I cant afford the insurance on a VR6 as I'm 19, so got the closest thing I could Met VR6 Nat at a local meet the other night and she mentioned the site and that I wouldn't get hated for wishing I could get a VR! So joined up I havent really done a lot to this car except try to tidy it up. It had been a bit neglected when I got it (purchased with half a splitter, missing trim, smash in the rear bumper etc..) but have plans for the future, its just when I get the time and money to do it!Heres a couple of pics from past to present:Brought it with the Merc wheels, although they were naff condition, so put the BBS Solitudes on for about a week until I swapped the Mercs for the Keskins Not happy with the fact the keskins are all black but will probably do something with that eventually!Any comments appreciated Link to post Share on other sites

If I had got a standard one instead, it would have ended up the same because I already knew how I wanted it, just worked out a lot cheaper buying one already half there Just need to put a few more of my own touches on it now!
