looks really good. if i had to criticise something, and you know by now that i do, it would be the floor mats and the insulting tape on the central heating pipe insulation - sorry, roll cage padding

The insulating pipe as you refer is actually proper roll cage fire proof padding ...the floor mats are temp as its having that metal floor stuff put in

The tape is there because cable ties looked wrong

Most rally cars I've been in usually have that tape on - mine did.

I reckon that looks fookin spot on - nicely done

Liked it when you first did it, love it now .

Complete and utter waste of time mind, as you're more likely to see Bill as a passenger in my car around Peterborough than you are to seeing Phil on track .

Paul i think its a Grp a!...not sure the car has only done 39k and the last chap managed to melt it so had a full rebuild abut 3k ago...all he knows it was rebuilt to cope with a stage 3 tune...so running 20psi for now....it is goin to over 2bar soon once i bung the AFR on to make sure the pump is man enuff!.....Not too concerned about this engine though as my new one is begging to go in with a T4 minimum turbo but probably GT35..once gearbox/diffs sorted!

But for me the Martini logo needs a bigger gold band around it as it looks a little bare like that.

Trackday scruits could pull it over for having the fire extinguisher up there, but not a major problem if its staying a road car

Very nice Phil!

Are you going to change the door cards for something more 'rallyish'? I also think you should go back to amber indicators like Paul R said.

Cheers,

Andy
