Welcome to the Monaco club

Mines in near in mint condition apart from a tiny ding in the bonnet and in the drivers door, but it’ll soon be different, I also have a spare one for parts if you ever need anything[emoji6][emoji6]

So much awesome!

Got myself a cup spoiler 20 minutes from home for £50!

Grill and steering wheel arrived today.

Wheel is really nice, airbag is good but want something better so will keep an eye out for a unmarked airbag.

Little bits, new cargo net and silver steering wheel badge.

Standard steering wheels are crap. I understand why though.

If 172/182s go anywhere near the desirability that GT Turbos are currently at, one of these new in 10 years time could be £500+

True, true!

£60 for cup spoiler, win win.

Silver badge cleaned and fitted to steering wheel. Airbag was actually mint, issue was it has been painted to match the steering wheel. 1hrs later pair removed. Yes it’s not a match but it doesn’t look s**t like before.

Spoiler stripped down, prepped and now primed ready for paint. Spent some time on this to make sure it’s a good base for paint.

I have half a litre of paint left over from the respray Ant.
Remind me when you collect it and you can have it to do the spoiler. Should be a spot on match then.

I’m confused, did you not buy this?

I can’t believe you’d spend this much Wonga on parts for a car that you hadn’t bought!

No, can' really go into reasons on a public forum but I couldn't not have foreseen what's just happened. It's not a ideal situation to be in, and yes I have loads of parts ready for this car. Probably have to sell the other two phase 1s also. FYI I have told Daniel to keep the deposit to cover MOT & parts obtained to make sure he's not out of pocket, can't do anymore than that.

Fair enough. I’d of kept the deposit anyway but then again, I’m a c*nt.

True, however I have been waiting for the car for almost 4 weeks to be ready, Daniel offered the deposit back a few weeks ago. I could of explored that avenue and not been honest, however it doesn't pay to lie. Difference is between you and me is that i'm not a c**t However if pushed I will turn into super c**t ?

 

[imprezaworks]

Everything okay, shame.

Kin hell Ant every time you get a nice Renault (or 3) on the drive something goes to s**t. I'd stick with the M5 if I were you.
