its white and covered in dimples at the moment :o
i thought if i put here what ive got to do to it,it might make me get off my arse and finish it

bodywork is pretty solid underneath just got the usual arch problem to deal with plus got a pair of doors and a tailgate to fit
its gonna get a respray after xmas,gonna keep the outside standard except for a rieger front spitter(the zender style one)

engine is standard apart from a k&n panel,fse valve and powerflow back box
leaving it that way until i decide which way to go let/tb's or good old fashion carb's.also its got the coscast head(which i wouldnt have known about if it wasnt for this site,cheers)

as for the alloys would like either speedline alessio's or compomotive mo's.at the minute its wearing cav gsi rims painted anthracite

it was a tidy car up until i went accidently off roading it into a ditch 2 days after mot'ing the feckin thing.i was gonna get rid of it i took it out for a spin & i couldnt its such a good laugh to drive (and my girlfriend hates it)

will put some pictures up of it in it's current state :eek:
when i get the chance

my gf takes it to work everyday, she loves it, she races, she overtakes people.

I think shes driven with me for too long.

Chicks dont appreciate classic good looks.

My Gf drives a Blue Saxo VTR with Lexus clusters. So I warned her never to diss my GTE, her opinion isnt valid. Sayin that she thinks it is quick & she likes the colour.
