Very clean mate nice,
Did you spray them wish bones yourself?
Where abouts you from?

2wdsaph ben

I'm in Whitstable mate, I had look round ur 4i at ford fair but couldn't see you about anywhere.

Yeah did wishbones, arb mounts etc, not perfect but look better than rust colour

Longdog3004

Cool I'm in Herne bay lol,
Yeah took my 3 yr old to ford fair so had to keep him amused

I used strato silver for the arb mounts and stuff I could spray, black and red Hammerite for the other bits.

Lol cheers Steve , cheers for the message about having a look at the cars, i was at lydden hill, did text back mate. Will have to sort out something soon, I've only been meaning to come round for a year now!

2wdsaph ben

Thanks mate, There's mine, Longdogs and steves all within 5 miles, then a lady with a black one about 10 miles away in Canterbury. So probably most common area in uk for 4i's

Cheers for that, they look like a Different front spring set up to my own

2wdsaph ben

On there website they only list two options, one for cosworth and xr4x4 and the other one for non cosworth. Don't know what difference is between them though

Longdog3004

what wheels you got on there now mate?
i like the multispokes and the silver 5 spokes

3dr cossie

very nice looking

Matthew

Longdog3004

She's in for MOT today lets see how the old girl gets on?

CrOwSoN15

Looks lovely that, not sure on the multispokes but the last set of wheels look ace.

Longdog3004

Well she failed on near side washer squirter not enough squirt!
Speedo not enough illumination,
Rear seat belt retracting slowly,
Centre box blowing a little,
Near side ball joint excessive play,
Near side tyre bit worn,
Not major work needed just bit of time spent on her so I'm fairly happy,

Who did you use for your MOT ?

Steve

Longdog3004

Cheers mate, didn't like the soft spokes on mine when I had them, but seem to like them on saph's I've seen now !!!
Looking at new set as it happens i like the looke of multispokes OZ style ones in white or black or graphite?
As you can see I'm lil bit undersided lol

Longdog3004

Steve Roy's in sea street

kosman

your 4i WAS faster steve
nice 4i but i really dont like em with cossie bumper,grill and bonnet,should be the standard 4i kit imo

2wdsaph ben

It's got the anthracite painted wheels on at moment. They are wolf race ones which were pink but I spayed them. I much prefer the Azevs but one is badly buckled so until I find a single Azevs in 16 inch I can't use them.


Took it out for nice drive this morning, 1st time looked at it in a month. Started straight away and felt nice

2wdsaph ben

Cheers mate I'm the opposite I hate the standard grill and bumper, they don't allow air flow through and just look plain compared to the Cossie stuff. I do like the 4i door trim and rear pillar and spoiler though.

2wdsaph ben

I've always used dargate mot centre, they love the old ford stuff there, never had any problems there with the 4i or my saph cosworth

Longdog3004

I might take her up there next time then, I used to use them when lived in whitstable,
I'm sorn'ing mine for while till I get my plans done for her and cross everything off my wish list I got,
Looking for some new wheels at mo missed a lovely pair off eBay other day

Longdog3004

What multispokes where ones you had mate?

2wdsaph ben

Have to meet u some time mate, wouldn't mind looking over your 4i
