Don't tend to take many, but some that I like.

Current car - Pisses me off with how slow it is but in every other aspect is a good car. SHould really have bought the ST220 rather than the diesel, but hey ho


My previous car that I traded in against the Mondy


And the one before that


But my fav all time pic of any of my cars is this one


Apologies for the long post.

8V - Bodywork owed me a lot to sort. G60 arches, sorting out removing the bumps strips on the doors, single headlight grille, coilovers, magnex exhaust, green stuff filter. About 2K worth of audio in the boot mated to a Sony headunit. Loved that car.

16 valvers always felt lardy and slower in my opinion.

I did,But they fucked it up by setting timing to full advance so the time i did have it on the road, its been detting, Plus not shimming it properly = fucked piston lands or rings, will find out when its apart

Its 24% on the cyl leakage test and well down on compression on #2

First pic was from ages ago though when my box went, nothing actually to do with TOTD.

Going for a decent spec too on the car, both box and engine
