Default My Bugeye wagon

Thought i should add some pictures of my 2002 Bugeye wagon







Its actually a GX but it does me fine! The only change from these photos is ive had a set of UK STI headlights fitted.

Plans are to get a normal bonnet that isnt carbon, sort out the big ugly dent in the drivers door, try and get hold of an upper spoiler from an WRX/STI wagon and thats about it I think

Any comments welcome, good or bad.

Cheers

I was considering that but the carbon bonnet is sort of peeling in places and has some bad stone chips, could it still be painted?

Thanks for the comments by the way!

I said it to Jaime the other day, but I think the only thing letting your car down is the bonnet - should really complete the car when you get it sorted!

I want to see it now you've finally got those headlights fitted!

To join the Wagon Squadron you have to be a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic

Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh Paddy old chap. You are looking to join the infamous Squadron.

There are certain processes that you will need to go through first to be considered for Squadron duty, what what what.

I'm sure that one of our beloved leaders wil be along at some point soon, to fill you in on some of the requirements and tasks that you need to perform.

This is by no means an attempt to frighten you off, but.....




..... you will be expected to know the gravtational pull of Ginger Cake & Ginger Beer. You should also know the deflection angles of all of "Johnny Bonkers" Narf Weapons Systems. Not forgetting the respective salutes.



Then there is the final initiation, which involves swarfega, a spatula, several Zebra Finches and a rolled up Radio Times. What what what!

Good luck to you!

Bravo,chip cheerio and a ripdangdoogie!

None of those things I am afraid.

Poor old Chocks gets a bit excited from time to time, and practices a range of wild initiation ceremonies in the comfort of his own billet. He puts these forward to the Squadron powers that be, ie Air Vice Marshall Sir Compostable Punnet, but all have so far been rejected, mostly on "human rights" grounds.

However, "a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic" sums things up quite well.

Keith, when you say a sandwich short..... think half a loaf
