Know wot you mean m8 but its one of those saphs that aint going to be used for breaking any landspeed records, although with Phil spec engine i reckon it would of.
Going to get some paintwork sorted and it will be spot on.

I think the rear end needs dropping a tad, not sure whether the wheels tyres will rub the arches.

Yeah i had it lower on the back, but soon got fed up and raised the rear back to std. Also tol by MArk at MAD that rear is better std ride hight with front being slightly lower.

Yes the seats are half alcantra and leather. I do it proper when doing it, and none of the shit fake rubbish

Oh Kev, that struct brace is strong! It doubled up as engine support once

THe interior was done by Touch of Class, though tbh few bits i wasnt 100% happy with and i know someone who can retrim better, however a fair wait as i know he tends to be flat out. Though if u want more info let me know
