Probably.........sometimes i wonder if having a car with a 4.4 v8 as a daily is stupid (it is of course), but if you get enjoyment from it then its worth it.
I couldn't have some boring 1.1 hatch, driving on our roads can be bad enough as it without having to drive some lifeless, soul destroying eco box around.
Looks a completly different motor mate, Well done, the front end especially looking very clean n fresh

Looking good Ian, shows you've put a lot of hard work, effort & love into your golden dragon! I'm not a massive fan of those style rear lights, but in context with the spoiler it does look quite good!! Possibly you could go one step further and have a black tailgate!
On another note, I used to use Eagle F1's as standard, but I found after they changed the tread pattern from the style you have in this photo, they kind of went downhill a bit! Did anyone else have the same feeling....or was it just the placebo effect of not liking the new style so much??
WHY DOESN'T MY SIGNATURE WORK??? ...IT DOES NOW! :-)

Thanks mate, i have thought about the Black tailgate many times, or just going all Black down the middle but that would spoil the Black grill. Another option i am still considering is going Black both sides and keeping the Gold in the middle.
I love the Goodyears the compound can be softer than some other Brand names but for comfort and ride noise they take some beating. They don't last long if you drive fast though which isn't an issue for me as i try to take it steady most of the time.

Then i went to the Evo Triangle meet... What a great day that was, meeting the "Evo Crew" and seeing some lovely motors and mental driving!
Now i have never been completly happy with my Saffy and when i saw the photo's it just confirmed my worst fears... My car looked GAY!!!!
I fell in love with Adrians Black lights and Frankie was always telling me to get Black lights...
It's nice to read a build thread over just a few days, I hadn't realized you'd done so much to the car, it's a credit to you Ian.
