Galliano Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 I still have a huge grin on my face! The exhaust is slightly louder than I expected but I can certainly live with it. If mum had given it a blast up a dual carridgeway taking it through the gears, i'm sure I could have had an erection, it sounds great around 3k +.. just not been further than 4/4.5k yet.

Galliano Posted March 25, 2010 Author Share Posted March 25, 2010 I paid £1500 and £50 for Mikey to deliver and get the train home - which was agreed after he booked a work shift for the day I was collecting the car. Its a fair price considering its full optional, immaculate, low miles AND modifications.Ste, no. Will be looking after her, though my god she sounds lovely at 3.5-4k Shall be erecting over that soon.

Galliano Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 Tell you what guys, whipped out the floor matts to see the condition of the original Paseo matts... IMMACULATE. Not a mark on the drivers side! Stunned with how clean they are! Been out in the trickling rain this afternoon and given Rhys a bath, looks lovely now, the exhaust is shiney and so are the door shuts. First things to do are spray the spare cam cover to smarten the engine bay.Might need some gorgeous weather again soon, need to polish it thoroughly and make sure the faint black watermarks are gone, don't like those much at all!Need a CD player with iPod connection (well.. USB port) and then just drive it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dean @RW-Developments Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 thats really smart mate! are you still keeping the yellow 1? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
STEVO9000 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Take care of it, this and my old Paseo were considered the twins, so if anything happens to it, me and Mikey will come beat you Plans sound good, that only needs a few touches to set it off properly and it will look even better than it does now.Do the one thing that Mikey should've done but never did, get rid of that awful manifold heat shield, and replace the mani with an OBX 4-2-1, you'll need to move the cat back about a foot or have the downpipe cut and welded to the cat, but its so worth it, engine bay looks a lot smarter with it.

Galliano Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 @ Ste, 17 on monday bro @ Stevo, plan is first to get insurance paid for etc... gonna be anal shafting but.. oh well. Yeah will in time get that, for now gonna just smarten the engine bay with a coating of some silver paint as done with the Galliano, smartens it up and makes it look new.Anyways, added two new touches today, one I didn't get a shot of as my girlfriend was looking around the car at the time, but thats the headlight protectors - just to be safe! The other is the glovebox thats lined with sub carpet. Took me around 10 mins to swap over. Now it doesn't sound tinny when you put things in it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I bet you're well excited now then mate, you gonna get insured on it and get out in it with your mom + some L plates? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 Got L plates, not gonna insure or go out with mum - as mum will NOT go out in it with me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
