Welcome to the madhouse! :)

There's a few of us with his and hers Cougars so welcome to the mini club within the club. :LOL:
My wife got the 'hand me down' in our case. ;)

Hello and welcome aboard, mate don't worry within a couple of weeks on being on this forum you'll start modding your own coug...it happens to us all, it's just time as the mod bug will BITE! lol Your missus might have the better of the two at the moment....it'll change and for god's sakes, take them there trousers back!!! LOL!!!!
 
ha, some chance. i know my place. Wife, child 33, child, 27, child 23, child 10, child 4, dog, dog, cat, cat, budgie. postman, me. seriously tho i am not into too much modding. i like the car as it is. i really do. still got orange side repeaters (i can hear you all wincing) it has got a rear spoiler and some odd looking side pieces which fit on rear panel and on to door. just stuck on, aftermarket accessory says cougar on them not sure damage if scrape them off.
 
but the wifes got very nice modding by previous owner. 17" alloys (unsure make) 245/45x17 Pzero tyres. full janspeed twin pipe (what a noise) and k&n filter conversion. clear side repeaters. otherwise standard. thats the kind of modding i like. subtle but enough to be noticed. dont get me wrong to each his own and some modded cars really impress me but just not my cup of tea. i am interested to know what tyre sizes keep the speedo correct on both the original alloys and larger ones, is there a topic regarding this somewhere on the forum?
 
when i say the original alloys i mean a different size than original as that size seems quite hard to source. thanks
