Default My three door at le mans 2007

Hi all

Just thought i'd post a load a pics from our trip to le mans 24hr this year.
Had a V8 lotus esprit before my three door but always had a soft spot for the 3 door!
Bought this just before christmas 2006 & have spent since then getting it right.
Poly bushed all round, koni adustables, wheels dippped, cut & laquered, new toyos,new front & rear discs/pads stage 3 black sili hoses all round, stage 3, lotsa shiney bits, new headlights,new bottom fogs & indicators, brand new back shelf, headlining taken down & re-trimmed,recaro/ford badges,dash removed & every bulb changed inc clocks + 2 old alarms cut out & a new cat one fitted.new cam cover in candy,m.sport leads,alloy header tank etc.....The list goes on as the bank balance goes down!
Full inside vallet & my dash has no cracks thank gaawd(note from the picks the dash cover so it didnt get to hot split ) & has been scrubbed with a nail brush to remove the yellow business that they get.
She has done 70K & has original panels all round & is hpi clear.=Bat tray mint.
Was ford mag featured in 99 but before i got it was in a bit of a state of rack & ruin, but the basics were there if you know what i mean.
Used to have a private reg but i whipped it off & got given the original one back

anyway i thought i'd post the pics including a nice burnout on the mulsane straight for the people!! Note the puff of black smoke, shes running to rich at the mo!
Ps got the union jack on the wing tips just for the weekend......As you do!!
