T3LLIOTT Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 Looks great mate. Was unsure about the direction you were going at the start, as I loved the look of the old interior, but I can appreciate this. If you ever consider selling in the future, drop me a line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha it’s crossed my mind recently, but every time I drive it I fall back in love! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 Not really a fan on daily road going tyres; more of a Jap scene thing, but the lettering looks good and clear. It's your car, so whatever floats your boat. S! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLAYTONJONES Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Well i’m back from a long weekend at the Nürburgring, if you have never been I highly advise you to go. The most incredible place i’ve ever been, a petrol heads dream! The Lupo performed faultlessly and not a single issue! Oh and the tyre writing didn’t last, a permanent solution is being worked on. I’ll leave a few pictures below?? p 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
