My Mauritius

[Tom Messy]

Got me a K11 1995 Mauritius 1.0 in March as my first car, and am very pleased with it so far. Been buzzing round since passing my test on Friday

OK so it doesn't look all that at the moment, more or less standard, but I thought I'd put some pics up anyway

Pretty clean.

Looks good, any plans?

Cheers. I've just installed my new 6.5" Alpine speakers, nothing too fancy. As for plans, as much as I can get away with without killing my insurance! High enough as it is without any mods. Maybe next year as it should drop considerably

Does anyone know how much it will affect the resale value of the car if I do stuff like respray the interior (either standard grey or black/silver) and make slight modifications to the dash etc, considering I paid £650 for it?

you always loose on cars what ever you do to it!

The pics are up

The parts I've done so far:

In the car - still more to spray, but you get the idea:

Thanks

I've finished respraying the dash now and so it looks a lot neater inside. Found it scratches a bit easily though.

Went to a scrapyard the other day and found 3 micras. Got a new flasher unit and hazard switch as my indicators weren't working, but then somehow managed to get the old ones working again grr . Also got some good condition indicator stalks that didn't fit (from a facelift I think, if anyone wants them? Got pics ). One thing that was useful is a new mint condition nissan badge for the back that I managed to scavenge as mine was nasty. They had a load of good condition alloys too that might be worth a look at some point.

Gonna get myself some more interior lighting at some point to hook up with the switchboard I made.
