drivin out my road were i live i saw them and tried throwin a u-turn wid me handbrake to swing the back round and i lost it compleatly and hit the kerb
daft sod
that's gonna cost ya
cancel your next mods, and get it sorted
im more pissed off at the point me mate cut his head and he got all the attention from the girls not me
just need to find somewhere to get parts lol and hopin me dad can help me wid the funds
Scott Scott Scott.....youve been watchin Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift too much. Im sure they would have been happy with a simple driveby...window down etc etc....
I thought I said no more rallyin.....How much ya reckon??
Shouldnt cost too much mate, you must of just wanted to hide under a stone, lol
will let ya know the full ammount of damage tomoz wid proper daylight pics wen i take the wheel off
which thats the part im not lookin forward to
fookin ell scott
i know
Unlucky Scott, but it doesnt look that bad.
New toe arm, maybe hub, maybe a wheel.
Should be able to get the parts 2nd hand from a scrappy no probs - maybe less than £50 in parts
gutted for for mate, many a time ihave damaged my car trying to impress
the main thing is your ok mate, no one was really hurt, and them girls will come round soon enough and realise who the real hero is !
oooooooooooh nooo
EEK pook deo...
hugs for scots bruised ego
you should be putting "Hero" in inverted commas there andy hahahaha...
Youll deffo have to get it fixed soon sir, cos ur little "demonstration" in New Brighton tother day was very very impressive.
those alloys are expensive to find a single one. but good luck with your repairs mate
Gutted for you matey.
I once slipped into a kirb on some ice/oil/mud
and broke the bottom arms on mine tis a gutting feeling
Good old Stu Pattison knows how you feel too Scott
Remember when he slid his skyline into the kerb at the coliseum. Needed his rear steering arms and wishbones replacing, plus a new set of alloys
and he was showing off just like you
car will be on the road tomoz
so far its cost me a whole £38 for new parts all i needed was the rear passenger front and rear lower arms and 4 new bolts im yet to get under the front of me car to see wot damage is ther but things are looking good at the mo
no visible damage
that include the wheel? is it refurbishable?
not included wid the wheel mate i aint looked in to the yet
the car is back on the road now so i will be out about but takin things more carefull from now on plus a bonus is i no longer need to drive the soddin horrible mini bus thing that people call a zafira lol
Ahem,think youll find its a Van with Windows.
Yea, leave the rallying to the professionals scott (aka StuyMac and I hahahaha)
Oh, btw, when I was in europe recently, i took some random photos, took a photo of a French House for my mum....look what wheels the 406 has outside of it
lolol Do you scott?
Anyway, why dont you tell everyone what your doing in the morning scott?
lolol Do you scott?
Anyway, why dont you tell everyone what your doing in the morning scott?

nice one scott
Yer, he`s highering his car coz he cant handle it too
only just put the springs on
are a scott what you like
just got back from there and the car is still on its arse
he gave up restoring it to original height
couldn be assed lol to much hard work involved lol so its still on its ass
if u ave the spare time i ave tools ur more than welcome to come and ave ago i must say the back work a treat as there the easiest just the front are bein a bitch to higher so i thought foook it leave it how it is for the time being lol
just dooo it...
don't forget to use that footprint wrench
just a quick thought from all you guys and girles on here wot do ya think about these for me mondeo
Description: front bumper and side skirts
Description: rear bumper and spolier
not too fussed on the skirts, look to "soft" compared to the sharp lines of the mondeo, bumpers look good tho, spoiler looks alrite too
iv made the pics bigger so y can see them better for all ya thoughts please
Right, if your Car was that colour, if it had those wheels,and wasnt Lowered Id say Yes..
Your Cars Dark Blue, Lowered like a bitch, With your own rare wheels...Therefore No.
Just get that Standard Mondeo Spoiler u were on about, and would look fine. That Kit would ruin ur car I reckon personally.
which wheels? there are two diff sets in the illustration pics?
personally i think it would like fine on his car regardless of it being dark blue or silver... would need to raise the car a fair bit tho if u didnt want to lose ur from bumper under the wheels lol
Just get that Standard Mondeo Spoiler u were on about, and would look fine..
im deffo gettin that spoiler from the pics mate just unsure about the kit hence why im askin for all ya thoughts lol
ahhh...hadnt realised they were different wheels, didnt look at em...
i like ur car as low as it is..looks awesome....to higher it again, jut to add the kit would be a shame..stick with what ya got I say
okies cheers craig i will stick wid the spoiler then
Well thats just my opinion mate, its ur car end of day. Do hatever makes ya happy.
Like ur ST220 Interior
im not gettin the st220 interior leather now im goin beige leather interior to brake the darkness up pics of seats below
Description: front seats
Description: rear seats
That leather will go nice
As craig said, just go for the spoiler.
go for the st spoiler mate looks loads better on the back of a mondeo than anything else but that just me lol
That leather will go nice
As craig said, just go for the spoiler.
looks good as it is mate just get the spoiler
Im not too sure about the kit - I dont dislike it, but something about it just doesnt look quite right - cant put my finger on it though
Well done Scott
