Well, pictures AND words cant keep me quiet that easy lol

My car!! its online! woohoo

Cheers to SteveP for the hostings

the olden days, before the BBS rims:


Me and Rick, nose to tail:


A couple with the arse up and the wheels off (car porn!):



The whole thing, new rims and a K+N sticker


The engine bay, coke-bottle breather and bodged fan relay (el/window relay and extra fuse board etc.). A bit of a mess ATM but getting there slowly


Oh.., and new leads/sparks/dizzycap... obviously

Looks great on the BBS rims... nice to see some rims that suit other than minilites!

Nice car! And I don't have minilites either. (it's gotte be something about money and priorities I think. Lol

Where do you drive?

Nice car! Made and exhaust too?

oh, you know, around london, over speedbumps mostly

I do have minilites as it goes (from my mini project - they are NOT going back on) but i never would have thought they'd fit the volvo. i think they are 13's, they just look too small. and parp. no offence to other minilite users - each to their own and all that

they do look pretty hench, dont they cheers

they were grey and crap so i took a can of black arsehole paint or three and made them look better.

they dont actually FIT per se... you have to keep going round the nuts tightening till they are flat or you get this:

negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/negative camber/toe in/positive camber/toe out/

going down the road

but when they're put on carefully, and you get low profile tyres so they dont rub on the arches (damn that offset) then they run well. nice and snappy response, loses traction easy when you boot it and turn hard but holds the road well around twists

bollocks, I thought I was going to be the first to unveil a 300 on bbs cross spokes (white or silver though), bloody exams and wet weather . At least I know they look great now .

sorry mate... i reckon a different colour is always different enough though

do it, you know you want to

I already have the wheels right here, and have had for quite a while - just been too busy with uni work to sort them out.
