....is now back!
After nearly 3 months of being without it i finally have it!!! Beand new engine and evrything!
Car was on 47k, always serviced on time, never gunned before warming up etc and on the way to work it got to 5.5k and threw a rod through the front of the block! 2 MASSIVE holes!!
So after ages of waiting i finally got it back on tuesday, along with a new rear bumper and cup spoiler. thought i might as well wait a bit longer and get that done as well!
Drives amazing now, it feels like a really strong engine and my last one pumped out 190 as standard! Cant wait to open it up, think its gonna be a flyer!!
Here he is.....

Cheers for all the comments lads! Very glad to have it back, it has been nearly 3 months!! i love my car more than i should lol so being without it has been agony lol! Cant stop looking out the window lol!

Nice lawnmower!!! lol

Looks class, like the spoiler, think that would be nice with the 200 rear diffuser (still fancy getting one myself)

Good luck with it, hope this one behaves :smile:

would love a 200 diff, but they cost far to much!!! If i find one on ebay/scraaappy then game on! But front splitter next!
