New Coupe Purchase
After lurking on the forum for a while I've finally made a purchase, not a perfect car but maybe a perfect project
I hate the wheels & they will be binned off but it drives great and the bodywork/interior is near perfect........it was very cheap so leaves a little money spare for improvements

Good choice !
I wouldn't recommend 19" wheels though. It usually needs lowering, making the ride much harder. I would stick to 18".
If you have the standard suspension, you could consider M-springs, brings the car to perfect height.

I've had CSL's on my previous Zed (roadster) with lowering. Looked great but was a harsh ride on some roads.

Similar yes if I'm honest.............but they're black which I'm not a fan of and too small with no stagger
On a slightly different note does anyone want to hazard a guess at the colour code.......is it Space Grey ?
