Awesome! My first car was a 1.6 finesse 3 door

It was a pepper red gti replica with morrettes and some cheap 17" 5 spoke alloys! Loved flying about in it

Keep the updates coming

sridgett

Cheers mate, means a lot coming from you, I know you a bit of a expert when it comes to the mk6

Thanks dude, yeah been mega busy trying to get the car done"ish for ford fair. I still have the Fiesta, will hopefully be putting a new rear arch on that soon. How's things your end?

Cheers dude

Sounds a cool car matey, the sort of thing that could get you in trouble with the rozzers?

Looks ok. It needs lowering more like in Rik.s pic. Hasnt it got the wrong back bumper on.

sridgett

Wow cheers dude, that's very kind of you. How would you give them to me? At the fair?

Lowering is next on my list mate. That just the bumper that was on it when I got the car.

STeve

sridgett

Yes please mate cheers. And if you want any bits let me know as sometimes parts turn up cheap in france

STeve

iTrader: (11)

sridgett

Cheers mate, it's very kind of you. Are you sure you don't want any thing for them? I could bring you over some beer or something if you like?

Well done mate, a good place to be 19 and just starting out tinkering with cars, done a better job than I did at your age.
Gearbox fell out of my mini so I drilled a hole through the roof, wrapped rope around it and tied a knot, it stayed like that for another 2 years haha

NobbyClark

Sammy boy!!

You know I love your Escort, but how cool does it look lowered, as in the picture rik-rs posted!!?

Get it lowered!!! ������

sridgett

Thanks matey, I been playing with cars for a few years now, but this and my mk2 fiesta are my "big projects". My first car was for Xmas at 15 and was a "classic" panda that needed a new clutch. So I done that and that was a real fun car to drive lol. Haha love the mini story. What car have you got now?

Yo nobster, good to see you on pf again, where us men hang out Cheers though dude, though you may not love it when you see it in the metal. But it's getting there. Defo needs to be lower dude. I'll have to see if I can find some lowering springs at ford fair
