Yo, Dawgz.

My set of new tail lights have arrived, so the rear-end now looks like a new car (apart from the missing exhaust tips, which I'll fix soon). The old light covers were faded, and had matte-black spray paint on them, so they looked awful. Also bought a brand-new set of new headlights the other night which are due to arrive in a few weeks, so the exterior is really starting to come together. I also replaced the interior lighting with cool LED's. 👍

I couldn't resist taking a few pictures. It's such a photogenic car, so sorry for spamming this thread with more pictures of different angles. I took the front licence plate off for these photos... looks much nicer without them.



I loooooove the new rear lights. :) :

Wow that is a very tidy example of a SERA. Love the colour of it.

I sort of know what its like to have the glass roof like that but my car doesn't have any where near as much as that does.

Volvo 940 Classic '98, B230FT turbo intercooler, M90 manual transmission. Surprisingly quick for a brick.
 
Nah, the 940 is too classy for them, let alone the Classic. On the other hand I also have a 240GL estate '92 (B230F with VX cam, M47) which has this one on the rear seat. :P

My first vehicle purchase (2nd hand though). 2008 BMW 135i, N54 engine. Only performance extra is an AC Schnitzer exhaust system. Its a massive upgrade from my previous daily driver (1.4 2006 Corsa utility, was my parents though)

My 2003 Cadillac CTS with the Luxury Sport package. Currently got 112,000 miles on it, with the 3.2L Opel V6. I love this car.

I'm not sure why would anyone doubt you to begin with. Most of us know you've been here for years by this point & some of us even remember when your dad had the Roush. 👍

Well thank you, I appreciate that. :)
 
My dads car, not mine but thought i'd post it as you may be interested.

It's a Dax Tojeiro, (AC Cobra Replica) with a 5.4L Supercharged V8 engine. :)

MORE MORE MORE I WANNA SEE MORE

5.4 needs to go however. Most modular engines were never anything to write home about.

Finally realizing a long dream of mine:

a brand spankin' new F30 335i with manual transmission
:D

Nice! I was invited by the local BMW dealer to view this model, and it looks NICE! Single turbo, twin scroll, FANTASTIC! 👍 Gets good gas mileage too!

The 5.4 was only just fitted.

It's a bespoke engine based on a TVR block.

Supercharged, brings in about 450 -500BHP (Not dyno'd yet)

Will upload more pics. :)

Older pictures, back when we had a 5.0L engine...

And before the front wing and stick on number plate. :)

Last pic was with different bumpers, but we took them off and put old ones back on.
 
302? Isn't that a Mustang engine? :S

I can't tell just by looking at it but that's either a 302 or 427 and I'm guessing the earlier. Ford put 302's in just about everything. Was that engine in that car when it was purchased?

It's a TVR block (Rover) not a Ford engine, originally a 3.5L V8, then we put a 5.0L in it and now a 5.4L.

All based on the same block.

The rocker covers are missleading. ;)


My dad built the car by the way. :P
