Another update….in preparation for MIVW, we thought we would throw out some more pics for you all...

Everyone following us on instagram (add us on teamspb) and Facebook would have seen these pictures already…but for those who haven't…here you go...

Some of you may have heard the rumours…new wheels were on the way….yes they were! But in the guise of Vossen CV7 10.5"x20 for the fronts to!

I think its about time I updated this thread!! Quite a bit has changed since this thread was last updated...mainly with a few interior touches and the audio install (which I'm planning to change YET again LOL...well that's if I don't sell the car!)

Heres some pics of my photoshoot with SoScene magazine a few months back...ill update shortly with all of the other things that have been going on inbetween working on other cars...

Just thought I would share some pictures with you all of my SoScene magazine photoshoot a few months ago...it was great working with Smuj Singh, Jordan (photographer) and Jamie (writer)! Cracking little magazine that is available for free download at http://issues.soscene.co.uk/3

Thanks Ian, I do have a fair bit to update, which ill start getting round to doing asap

The CLS has taken a bit of a back seat to be honest...I have a Mk2 Golf project on the go (just finished putting it together from sound deadening it), my Ford Orion (will be going Zetec turbo in that in a couple weeks hopefully now that I have all the bits for it, then it will be off to paint and get some work done that I'm sure lots of Ford boys will love me for LOL!!!), and my recently acquired Mk4 Escort van that I need to start at some point to, which is MINT underneath after a full underside resto...just need to make the rest of the body as nice as the underside and I have a winner on my hands!

Ill get all the build threads up in due course...just don't know what to do about image hosting now as all my content and build threads will be wiped out at some point soon
