Some current pics of my car taken en route to Le Mans this year. Thought it best to stick the front plate back on for the 1st time in 5 years when in France

The car was FULL of shite so the ride height looks a bit messed up and obviously it was covered in shite by the time I got there. Car got wet for the 2nd time in 5 years!

 

Love the intergrale ,and the lotus. oh that old sierra's nae bad to,looks like you had a good time mate.would love to go to lm some time

cheeRS stu

 

Where's the centre caps Andy? Loving the smaller lights.

Lancia looks awesome

 

Very nice, wheels need the centre caps though.,

 

Looks awesome

bet you whiped that plate by now LOL

 

your car looks the boolox mate as does that lancia[my second fav car behind the cossie]

 

The Grale is the bollocks, My mate just had a full H&S exhaust system fitted before we left and the thing sounds awesome. Here are a few more pics of it

The view I was normally used to


They type of roads we had to play on

 

Looks stunning mate and sweet looking Lancia too

 

engine bay shots?

 

Looks fantastic mate, really nice!

Got wet for the 2nd time in 5 years? You not washed it then?

 

Are those comp. cxn ?

 

LOL no I havent washed it in 5 years

Centre caps off as I was running THAT late gettign there

Might leave the off as its growing on me with the smaller headlamps. We'll see

Only engine bay shots are from when I stuck in not had a chance to do any proper pictures. No carbon cam beklt cover etc. It pretty much looks the same as before but with the Quaiffe Verniers

 

LOVE your 3 door mate

and black is well after moonstone and white in my eyes usually!

 

awesome mate the best car out of the bunch

 

Very nice indeed Andy........

 

All 3 cars look awsome, how good do those roads look though??

So smooth and hardly any traffic!!!

 

Roads were SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than anything in the UK so easy drive fast with good visibility for miles ahead.

I had a tussle with quite a few cars at over a ton and never lost

 

looke better without caps Andy.

How ya doing BTW, aint seen ya for ages!

 

One of my favorite 3drs by far!! credit to you

All the cars look the nuts but I LOVE the Intergrale!!

 

3dr & 'Grale look the absolute bollox....

Proper ol' skool cool rides

 

love all the cars mate.

3dr looks awesome anymore pics of it???

 

Missed the question about the rims earlier, they are CXN's

I have a few more pics of it from the trip.



Full of shite

 

glad you all had a great trip-good to see the car up n running again andy!

 

is the grale runnuin standard power ,and how did it match your cossie in the acceleration stakes

 

Thanks for the comments;

The Grale was about 270 brake (not for long mind!) and the engine in the cossie was dyno'd at 435 brake RWD it was no contest on the road at all really especially once rolling in the conditions you see in the pics. Having said that racing 996 Turbos and RS4s wasn't a problem (Standard most definately!)

some other randome pics from over the years............

 

very nice car you got there,

not any new ones but have these;

Cheers, Karl

 

Looking mint mate! If I didn't have a cos I'd have a an integrale or an E30 M3 love them as well.

Just a shame your car isn't in the best colour for them.......

 

Andy the car is looking fantastic, I like the small lights and for some reason I even quite like the caps missing. Stunning

 

sierra looks best !

 

Goddamn this 3dr is like sex on wheels. I was surprised how "racey" those small headlamps look with the Cossie-grill. And being honest I really think that those wheels look kinda great without centre caps.
