Default My Mint 45k Series 1, *Update - C.Combe Show pics + Trophy!*

At long last i've found the perfect car for me, took 5 years to find one that was right and at the right price , but I think you'll agree it was well worth the wait!

Only mods on the car are:

Lowered 25mm on Koni Adjustable's
Full S/S Mongoose exhaust
RS 4 Spoke Steering Wheel

I'll let the pics do the rest of the talking!









































































Think that covers most of it!

Forgot to take one of the spare wheel just to show how truely clean this car is!

All comments are welcome peeps, hope you like it!

Edit Must just also say a massive thanks to adamS2rst for helping me with bits and bobs and searching for Series 1's for sale at 3am when he's got nothing better to do than sleep! Cheers fella!

Well, what can I say. Dan, at last you got a nice S1, and a PROPER minter at that! Glad I could be of some help to you, and also glad you held out for this car rather than the other examples which let you down before

I can see this car being in concourse competitions soon you BUFTY SPUD!

I'm only jealous

Love it mate, can't wait to see her in the flesh in all her glory, I'm sure I wont have to wait too long
