Default Emma's Type R
Thought it was about time to get some new shots of Emma's Type R. So when a rare sunny day came along, it had to be done. Took over 100 photos, but thought i'd post a few up










All that space, then someone has to park next to her

I've gone for a relaible car at the moment. My next car will be either a Merc 190 Cosworth, C43 AMG or a Leggy. I want JoolsUk's silver legacy.... he is my sisters boyfriend

I can use Emma's car if/when im bored of mine

Emma might be changing her white wheels, so they may be for sale soon

you aren't wrong! white are a pain in the butt . . . but i am a bit of a sucker for the blue and white look.
I've got a set of wheels sat waiting for me to decide whether I wanna change them or not . . . they'll be white eventually . .. but for now they're the silver newage WRX wheels. They'll be easier to clean than the multispoke and 17's instead of 18's. Not sure what to do.

thanks for the comments tho peeps

the only thing is, i can't carry passengers in the rear with the 18's on, plus i get rubbage on the rear when i plant the accelorator where the back drops and on mega bumpy uneaven roads when going over 30mph it might rub if i hit a dip or similar lol so i was thinking of changing them more for practicality and driving pleasure rather than looks really.
I love the way it looks at the mo, just thought it'd save my arches and tyres lol.

i like the newage wheels on the classics and if it is more practical now that must give them another thumbs up.

At least the car's ready now for Saturday's Geo day

Emma, car looks really nice, do prefer the other set of white wheels, but still looks mint.
The merc is mint, the 190 cosworth is an 80's legend but so hard to find a good one, Actually just watched fith gear which had a peice on the 3 door cosworth and the merc 190 cosworth.

It looks really tasty with the 17's on. Looked good with the 18's, but major rubbing issues

Will be at the Geo day, so you will all have to take a good look at them

The exhaust looks abit mullered mate, you can have my old one to wack on till you find a better one, i wouldnt recomend on keeping it though youve seen the state of it probably gonna throw it away, gonna take my aircon out soon too so emma can have the whole lot if she likes, gonna take the inside hoses out too so itll be the complete lot

Update on the R

Passed it's MOT with ease
Exhaust on it way - Thanks to Moley
Rear diffuser one it's way - Thanks to Moley
Air con hose on its way - Thanks to Jaffa

When the new hose is fitted, it's on its way to Lifestyle Ford for a re-gas.
New wheels & geo set up done. Now handles like a go-kart.

Going for a major clean in the inside soon as it's starting to get a bit untidy.

Engine clean is also on the cards.
