When you see one with the right spec and wheels it will hopefully change your mind, that’s a 4s and Probably a decent spec, just wheels and colour can make such a difference. Still nicer than my one lol

That blue definitely does nothing for it. White is usually my least favourite colour but probably the one that this looks best in.

It's not what you would call stunning, but the overall shape is OK. It's just the weird slit things below the headlights that I think really don't help it, for some reason it always makes me think of something like this tattoo.... 🙈

Excuse the dodgy google edit, but soo much better without...

The technology is amazing though. I was driving a MINI Electric for a few days and really enjoyed it, but this would obviously be on a completely different level, would love to try one!

Week off and little to be at. Do have my dads old weekend car stored
so gave it a spruce up which was long overdue. Needs a few bits sorted, not happy with the roll over bar, needs re-finishing and the targa vinyl could do with new vinyl. But hey ho it’s the same age as me, 1987 now with 56k miles.

got a touch in stick for some road rash and stuff around the front end and buffed it going down 2 grades of compound, seal and waxed. Trim blackened etc

all dressed up and no where to go springs to mind now as it won’t be used given the current situation and we runs up the coast are off the menu.
Took it a 15 min run as needed to get some temperature into the engine to get a good oil reading which was grand, all callipers free etc.

A1 tyres have fixed a few for me...

I have had the same thing happen and managed to get the life of the tyre 9k out of it.

Tyre replaced before 2 year service - so all was good for the service inspection time.

I got a flat on a week old tyre back in September and Carryduff tyres sorted it for me and had no problems since.

i could cry, check out the video


Seen quite a few videos and photos of this on instagram. It was a hit and run, the guy was drunk and apparently very well known. He got pulled in by the cops further down the road. Absoloute ballbaggery.

Got tyre sorted, Gilnahirk did a good job - wee nasty screw in the tread, Plug should be grand, one of the fitters suggested 7k max out of a set on P Zeros on the back anyway. Will be reverting to my favoured Michelin PS4S when the time comes. Now to get her nice cleaned later this afternoon..
