    Here it is at Combe, would have introduced myself but there was nobody nearby. Car looked good mate. My mate was in a Dark green Subaru Legacy that passed you on the track!
    I will post some more pics of the day in the gallery section, as usual it was a great assortment of cars.

    Re: Trigs tarts freshen up!

    Bit of an update on the car.

    Theres been one thing bugging me on the car since I did the zetec conversion the shit fitting ashly system.
    I spent a hole day trying to get the system not to knock on anything when I frist put the zetec in, witch in all fairness it never has knock or banged on anything since I modded it but it has never sat nice since. the back box was on a angel across the boot floor and the center pipe hung low at the rear did hit speed bumps but most do.

    But now all my toubles are over (hopefuly pray: ).

    Let me know wot you all think, Its abit diffrent but I like it

    I'll reserve judgement for now, perhaps a few more 'general' pics of the car are needed, not ones that serve to specifically highlight the exhaust

    I've been away and come back for another look a few times now, and I do believe I quite like it. Different from the norm, but not outlandish

    Looking at that first pic though, it looks slightly squiffy - like the left pipe's a centimetre or so lower than the right ... or that could just be because of the jack

    Out for a drive on a sunny spring day reminds me why I got this car
