Following on from the trend.....

Rave reviews all round from many sources, I can't wait to have them fitted!
Thanks heavens for small wheels - I could certainly get used to cheaper tyres! Popular size for the Clio is 195/50r15 (stock tyres are a 205/45r16), but I have gone for a 55 ratio instead to retain the stock overall diameter, ad some beef to the sidewalls and fill the guards a bit more. RE003s have a rather square tread on them, which should somewhat combat the slightly smaller width I'm going with. Combined with the incremental offset increase of the 2118s I am excited to see how it sits/drives!

Did you get that car? I was trying to talk a friend into it. If I didn't already have a 1st gen rx7 I probably would have jumped on it.
Are you a member of the Michigan rally enthusiast page?

Awesome buy! I hope it really is the diamond in the rough it appears to be. I take it you plan on racing it?

Please leave the body like that and just make it perfect underneath. The perfect sleeper rat!

Dunno if y'all can tell from these pics, but I just bought AND fitted some window tint for my flat to reflect heat and glare from the sunlight....
It has the mirror effect on the outside which ensures privacy (so I can open the vertical blinds fully at daytime) and if you look at the small windows at the top, they were already done with a frosted glass film and you can see the significant difference in the amount of light that can enter the room through each.
It's a miserable morning.
Edit: I should add that this is a view to the west at about 260º and on a clear day I have the sun from 12-1pm till sundown which can be as late as 10pm this time of year.
UPDATE: This window film is true to it's statements, I'm now sitting here at 3:30pm with sunshine breaking through the clouds for lengthy periods and I can say without doubt it ain't half as hot in my living room as would be before the film was installed (double glazed magnified heat), the heat is definitely going elsewhere (reflected) great stuff.

I'm not sure what we'll do with it. It was an impulse buy really. We'll probably mess around with it for awhile then go from there.

That sounds like a plan. I'll probably try to find some American Racing Libre wheels, but other than that it'll stay the same on the outside.

So after Brexit made the pound fall like a rock I decided to take advantage and get myself a nice PS4 bundle. Along with the console I also got Uncharted 4, PES 2016 and 3 months (UK) PS Plus which probably won't work for me 
, but overall its still not bad for about 340-ish Euro .
EDIT: Forgot to mention I also got TLOU: Remastered and Infamous: Second Son for it after trading in some of my old 360 games.

That car looks like a t-shirt that has been patched up too many times.
