Not a Micra

[ollyc98]

But I thought you might be interested in what I'm rolling around in these days (if it passes it's MOT Tuesday). Of course I only have it til I get another Micra. All mods done by me. The stripes are the +40bhp 150mm type

Best mod so far is the Kumho KH17's on the back, need to get the front done now. Handling is pretty sweet from standard, may look like a jelly mould but doesn't drive like one.

my sister had a GayA for a bit and in all honesty they are brilliant cars, cant fault them except the speedo bubble thing

I got rid of the AX cos I smoked the clutch on it.

There are only a few problems with this one:

The tinworm, which I have now fixed, BIG holes, hidden by plastic
It's a girls car
The torque runs out at 2500rpm
There is no room in the engine bay to work with

Apart from that she is beautiful to drive, revs up to well over 6000rpm (still not hit a limiter), sounds tractorish though. Handles so well, like my micra did on apex springs.

It's a girls car

Nice, I did consider mondy alloys but the 13 inch pepperpots were just too sexy for words so I had to have them. XR2 spec Ka anyone?

 

[markbognor]

Yeah, nice wheel choice there. Minus arch gap and sans stickers that'll be the business.

Oh, and there are a far finer wheel choice than mondeo - Escort Cosworth!

 

[ollyc98]

Oh they looked like the wheels of the V6 mondeo lol. I wouldn't mind some XR3i cloverleaf wheels but they are costing stupid money right now.

Lowering is definitely part of the plan. I want to cover the whole car in vinyl, including the windows lol.

Never thought I'd like a KA but that blue one... yes please

 

[pjg1979]

Not bad Olly. I do quite like the Kitted Out KA's but would own one personally a bit cramped and plasticy the last one I was in.

 

[ollyc98]

Yeah, the backseat was not approved by the girlfriend. They are small inside cos they are small outside lol.
