wheels are hott! better luck next time with some mirrors Sam! Phil.

i'll maybe keep an eye on the local italian forums and watch for Angel Tuning doing an NI visit for mapping. according to wikipedia she is 300 lb ft torque at 1500 rpm, kurb weight is 1,430–1,680 kg (3,200–3,700 lb) - im guessing the higher figure is for the Sports Wagon version. wikipedia link she's a 5 cylinder 6 speed manual, no Q2 unfotunately lol. she seems to have no options at all, but i'll soon address that in typical BadgerSports Inc tradition! lol she's a big boat in the corners tbh, although there is a factory front strut available for relatively cheap, and there are aftermarket rears available, could well be tempted by the OEM front one. the giant Brembos hiding behind the 17s are what make me giggle tho! Phil.

Pic-a-tures! Rubbed down and ready to rock and roll bitches: First coat of primer: Second coat of primer: Third coat of primer! Drunk off primer bitches! I'll let Joel and Alan explain whats next, but i saw a black rattle can being weilded in the direction of the fresh paint as i was leaving Phil.

Update She's here! collected the new car last nite, so glad to see the back of the red one, grumpy til the end. the clean up job that Donnelly's cleaning bay crew have done on the grey one is nothing ordinary! it honestly honestly honestly looks like a brand new car! its so mint! its also getting better mpg than the red one already, and that included me "testing" the 210bhp on the way home...fecking shifts!!!! sounds epic too! they also kindly fitted my OEM wind deflectors for me and i'll fit the bee sting ariel and my new mats today. i'll get some pics asap, right now its like a hurricane over here! Phil.

i'm coming down to rub my willy on this. that is all. Phil.

neither did i mate. no one did. i even told the chap when i went in i wasnt for buying it. shows what i know. or how easy i sell i am lol. anyway, finance all approved, signed on the lines tonight after work, hopefully get her next week, she's in the shop for a service already, apparently all she needs is an alignment, result! Phil.

i have first dibs on the cage. fact. :) also, looking forward to seeing what u have in store bro! Phil.

Well...it didn't fuck up again, but it is going. Confirmed. Update Got the broken spring replaced today, great use of my holidays before crimbo :) however, en route back to work i called into Donnelly's in Mallusk as i had the four-one-one on a car that had come in....and long story short, i've done a deal to trade my red one in for it. The new car is still a 159, only this one is grey, with suede rather than leather...and oh yeah, its a 2.4 JTDM. 210 BHP kkplzthnx! Same MPG as the 1.9, same tax as the 1.9, insurance will be a bit higher but who cares. It also has MAHOOSIVE 4 pot front calipers same as my dad's V6 has! badges are in great condition which means i dont have to replace them, a tow bar, and the body work is in much better condition as are the wheels. hopefully i will take delivery next week between Christmas and New Year. Project 159 continues: Project 159, Version 2.4 Phil.

^^^what mark said! Phil.

exactly gents, the warranty is a blessing, and it was free lol, the only annoyance is they are so far away which is a real pain, and they give me a Getz as a courtesy car....fucking insult that is! Phil.

sweet pics dude! looking good as always! Phil.
