NewbieLewby Posted May 20, 2014 Author Posted May 20, 2014 Looks a nice base to start with mate. thanks a lot Quote
INEEDNAWZZZ Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Nice starter pal, wish I'd waited for a decent silver one to be fair. Quote
drongo boi Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Looks clean pal :-) wish mine was like that when I got it :-P Quote
NewbieLewby Posted May 21, 2014 Author Posted May 21, 2014 Looks tidy mate! You got any plans for it? well I've tidied it up since that pic, took off those nasty wheel trims and got a new rear light, and gave it a clean . i wanted it lower and thought mx5 wheels would look cool but I'm basically a new driver so my insurance will basically double so i might have to wait a bit. Nice starter pal, wish I'd waited for a decent silver one to be fair. thanks. i was quite lucky i guess because this was the first one i went to see Looks clean pal :-) wish mine was like that when I got it :-P cheers Quote
Tyler Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 Yeah I know what you mean, mines my first car and insurance is stupidly high, at least it will give you time to save up. Plus there's loads of things you can do to sweeten em up without having to put it on insurance Quote

bdohohh Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Looks pretty clean!There's a load of stuff you can get started on that shouldn't affect insurance too much. My first car was meant to be cheap on insurance so no mods, ended up doing shite tons to it and my insurance was never affected! Look forward to seeing what you do with this mate. Quote
