What a stunning looking ///M absolutely fantastic ( and yes I am very jealous) great job great colour looks amazing
 
Superb ! A very handsome car you have there with some subtle and tasteful modifications. :thumbsup: Are you in Sweden ? If so whereabouts ?
 
Looks great. A winter well-spent! Hope that you get a summer to enjoy it.

Probably a sore point with you, but the whippy aerial looks nice. :)
 
Thanx all! :)
I do like the whippy antenna more & more, it balances the rear somehow.. I think I must have read too many stubby-hypes which got me mine.. I don't really miss it.
The spoiler is a rubber profile I found on ebay, I can dig into it more and add pics of the 'build' if there's interest?

Goteborg is beautiful. Passed through back in 2006 from the Newcastle car ferry on my way to Linkoping. I was born in Linkoping in 1966 so I love Sweden. I need to visit friends soon. A wonderful country! :)
 
Thank you! Yes especially the stance I'm happy with, I'm glad I went for the Eibach's. H&R springs look too low especially rear..
 
I think I know where that bridge is...

lovely looking coupe

Is the front plate smaller than normal? is that legal? It looks nice and neat, if it's an option I might have to get one and remove the front plate holder. Although the stock one adds some protection from toe bars that seem to be on every other car here :headbang:
My front bumper could do with a respray really, then the rest of the car needs a detail, know anyone good?
 
Hehe no the sticker plate is illigal so you have to put on the std one for MOT. Otherwise no problems.
I have some contacts especially a great paintshop if you need one.
You're in town? Lets meet for a coffee!

Sorry, I bought that strip a year ago and ebay history seems to erase over time..
It was something like this but more upright.. Can't find it mine actually.

I'll stick with a regular plate for now then. I need to get a decent holder for the rear one.

I've managed to get some contacts with mechanical know how but a paint guy would be useful.
Yeah I'm in town, happy mid summer! Lovely weather for it...
Coffee some time would be good, or should that be ficka?
