hello.

new to passionford and RS ownership.

here are a few pics of my car. totally standard bar a 20mm lowering on koni spring and shocks, a scorpion exhaust and a bit of engine bling (forget to take pic though )

it has got 97k on the clock but did have a harvey gibbs rebuild 20k ago.

plans for the car are to keep the outside as is (maybe a set of wheels though) and to get a MSD stage 1 fitted after the new year.

please let me know your opinions on the car, and make any pointers to what you would do to it.

cheeRS.

kev

Leave her as she is, but if you really want to change something, put some nice rims on.

Looks lovely! Get rid of the mesh in the front grill and chuck some Amber's on there and it'll be sweet as a nut!
