burt Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Hi, had my sportif over a year now and only now found ukso! Until now I didn't realise the potential my cheap banger has! When I've worked it out I'll post some pics. Be warned though, it's far from shiny Burt Quote

burt Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) Thanks bit I'm on my phone and it's not letting me copy! Edited April 3, 2014 by burt Quote
burt Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 It had Matt black rover 200 wheels last week for that extra stealth Quote
burt Posted April 3, 2014 Author Posted April 3, 2014 Anybody got any cheap/free mods I can do? I bought the car with 2 weeks mot and 7 months tax for £150. Got told it wouldn't get through the mot, so was going to scrap it after cashing in tax. Cost me £10 for the work to pass. So used it for a year. It's gone through another mot, only needed a seatbelt. With the 2 sets of wheels and other bits i've done it now owes me a HUGE £310! It's now done 20k in just over a year. Quote
Manny Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 WELCOME to UKSO, did you paint it yourself? was it originally red? looks like an sr? there's plenty of mods if you've got the ££££ Quote
burt Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 It was red, but when I got it it was nearly pink and every panel was dented.Me and a mate decided it needed painting, so we done it on my drive with Wilkos blackboard paint and a gloss roller. Its ment to be a sportif but didn't have any stickers on it. Pretty basic inside too. Quote
morgey Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Welcome. I quite like the chalkboard look. My spare bonnet is chalkboard but it doesn't suit the rest of my car because it's gloss lol Quote
Markgtni Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 welcome and not a bad job for just paint and a roller not a bad job atall will keep that in mind for the next time I get mine done lol I had my ep82 done in a wee back garage using a compressor and a wee spray tool was wared that it would need properly sanded and primed and I didn't listen so will deffo need done it again at some stage Quote
burt Posted April 29, 2014 Author Posted April 29, 2014 I didn't do any prep. Apart from gettin the bird shit off. Just seen the tax disc expired end of Jan! My excuse is I moved house, reminder went to old address while v5 off in Swansea Quote
