    JC where on earth do you store all your cars? Big garage?

    3 live on the drive, one lives in the back garden.

    I want to do something like this in my MX5, even got a boot rack in preparation. Trouble is, Alps trip ain't cheap, and I've just got back from a lolexpensive trip to the USA. Skint.
    Might do Scottish islands late summer instead, who knows.

    yeah that would be awesome, so would the Scottish islands, wouldn't mind doing a trip up there myself someday.

    Found the Pistonheads advert for my car. (I didn't see it on here, I saw it on eBay!)


    .







    First modifcations:

    Swap tyres for some Eagle F1 Assymetrics.
    Fit a standard Megane stereo, aux lead, and renaultsport speakers.

    Then

    Decat
    DS2500 pads
    Maybe a remap.

    And look for a set of spare wheels for R888's to go on!

    Re: Post a pic of your car
    Apparently DS2500s are not that great, they leave a metric **** tonne of dust all over your wheels and wear out really quick (if you drive the car on track days). I think the general consensus is that EBC Red Stuff are OK but Dixcel brakes are the dogs if you can get them for the R26.R

    Oh and the decat was what killed my titanium midbox as well.

    Sorted that now though...





    LOL!

    I love how this was posted to see what cars students are driving these days and the majority are just older people with full-time jobs bragging.

    This is my beast of a car throughout my A2 studies, will be ditching it just as I go to uni in September though:

    1.3 Skoda Felicia

    My poor old mk4 Fiesta failed her MOT yesterday, so she's waiting to go and have some welding on Tuesday, only needed her until ~September and she's costing me what would have been that first months finance on the Scirocco R

    Mini's aren't to everybodys taste but I think it's a great car, and so much fun to drive.

    I had a brief stint in one - a 2006 MINI ONE borrowed from a family member. It was actually really nice to drive, although not what I personally would buy.

    Your one looks good - I like the small spot lamps and the alloys.

    For a first time driver it's really easy to drive so that's probably why I like it so much.

    Thank you and yeah the added bits really do add to the look, the neighbors 2 doors down have the same but without the spot lamps, nice alloys and tinted windows and it just doesn't look the same at all.
