inspired by Ginja, i have decided to chuck on some pics of my cars to date 
started when i was 16 with this; ford orion mk3 1.6
which shortly became like this
sold that when i was nearly 18 to get a renault laguna 2.0 rt sport (just like the btcc cars)
which i then got bigger wheels, facelifted and slammed along with every possible extra the car could have come with
that unfortunately got broken into while it was parked at a rail station.
which made me buy a rover 45 to convert to an mg zs (the reason being an mg zs is the same car through and through but had twice the price tag) i was more than capable of copying the mg parts over but I uprated everything higher spec with me being a motorsport student by this point
with the rover having a standard monster spec, i went for a limited edition top of the line impression s - every option you could think of
which was then hugely overhauled with the entire suspension system binned, along with the brakes, gearbox, dash etc etc - this was perfect to every detail including the aerial mast :ihih:
this was my favourite car to date but unfortunately whist travelling uphill at an undisclosed speed i was caught out. had a very high speed tyre blow out which nearly cost me my life. was just on the verge of a 100ft drop when the car came to rest, all airbags blown, complete underside torn away
the insurance paid me a measly ?ú1300 which left me with too little cash to buy another rover 45 to re-shell, let alone another zs
so this leads me to here, 1 year ago i bought a cougar which was in appalling condition, huge deep scratches over it, the engine over due servicing by 20k, all brakes knackered, suspension gone, mirrors snapped off just to name a few things
i snapped it up and reworked it from the ground up - i am still banned from modifications (direct line blame my aftermarket wheels for the tyre blowout) so my mind turned to making the car immaculate over anything else, and has since had the map messed with to satisfy my motorsport inclined mind lol
here how basically how the whole car was -
and heres it after i sorted it out
