So do standard headlights.... this is an extra one.
I have snazzy zennon colour bulbs in mine, so look pretty trick.

I only have a pick with full lights on, not dipped, so cant see the extra sidelights properly. I will try and sort one out for you at the weekend if you want.

i pretty much lived in Motormania (hornchurch), bugger now its gone if i need any general spares.
Adrain (kip) is who i bought my car off...

I dont remember seeing a big tall skinhead in the shop tho, may have, was so long ago that shop shut down.

I think i remember your car, vaguely.

Last nights RS meet was a good turn out, found out some blokes has copied my wheel too, same colour n all.
So new wheels maybe on the list now.

I used to see Nil's safe all the time, proper hard looking car! I think I've seen G1EN's car a few times when I've been in South Essex. Have either of you ever seen me in mine? It doesn't come out much!

Near Colchester mate, I work in Wickford but I never take the Cosworth to work. I rarely drive the car as far as South Essex, apart from shows, but I have taken it to Southend a couple of times.
