Some of you may have seen some of past projects and last year i was looking at various things and "almost" bought an RS500 Sierra but quickly realised i would never use it along with things like old skool 911's etc.
I bought the S1 Turbo the other month and its sat in the garage ever since and all i do is wonder when i will ever drive it, i just cant have something i will never drive and decided i need something more modern i will drive but will still give me the excitment i want.
I had a deal done on a F430 spider a year or so back but bottled it at the last minute after horror storys about when they go wrong so im over the idea of one of them.
Next up was a Gallardo which unless very new are just as bad and i just cant seem to get on with how they look.
Which takes me to my latest buy, ive never been keen on the R8 as i just found them so under powered and over rated.
That was until i had a blast in the guy from works V10, HOLY FUCK springs to mind, the car just goes on and on and is a whole lot of car that is up there with the best of them.
Anyway enough of my speel of shite, the deal is done was done and a Sepang Blue V10 spyder was bought.
Its been a while since ive been this excited about a car and i dont mind pretending im a hairdesser with the roof down while i have the insane V10 noise behind me.
The car is fully loaded and has every extra available (expect ceramic brakes).
Dealer pic but you get the idea:
Some pics when i picked it up.
Daughter loves it.
Space required in the garage so something had to go bye bye S1.
Well slight update, i decided that i need to really get some miles done in the car so what better way than a blast around Europe with 180 other cars.
I am doing the Modball rally in June with the car, London – Amsterdam – Luxembourg –
Zurich – Milan – Venice – Vienna – Bratislava – Prague.
The whole Modball thing has seriously changed with some amazing cars lined up (15+ Lambos, 20+ GTR's, loads of 911s and so on) and i want mine not just to stand out but to also make the drive more fun.
180 cars are entered so it should be blast, we are doing it for charity and all money raised will go to Aberdeen NEO Natal unit for terminally ill babies.
First change was some Genuine OE which were machined and Diamond polished, crazy bling but look the part.
Car is now wrapped and work has begun to tune the car to within an inch of its life.
I really can’t thank Donald at the Vinyl Cut in Aberdeen enough for the wrap and the quality is insane, over the weekend and some 800 miles the car received plenty attention and dozens of pictures from the public, every single person thought the car was painted.
I could barely park the car without people coming over for a look.
The wrap I know is love or hate but it’s all about getting the car noticed and raising as much money as we can for charity, I love the stand colour of the car but it’s all about getting the car “out there”
The rap is done purely for the event and to get the charity and those who helped get it looking like this as much attention as possible.
The car spent Friday at Milltek who used the car to develop and fit their Super Cup non-restrictive race exhaust,, WOW its loud but I love it.
The decals and wrap will be removed after Europe (10 counties in 7 days) but for now it about making the car stand out with looks, noise and performance.
More to come
