Title: CLG Update
Post by: AlexG40 on May 03, 2008, 07:30:49 PM
Ok, it's no track slag and it aint even a pukka G, but I like it. Be interested in your opinions on the car from a G40 enthusiasts point of view.

i love it. very original looking with lots of oem goodness.  but tastefully modified. being a complete ass, i'd like to see attention to detail gone a little bit further with original pipe clips/crimps instead of jubilee clips on places like the top expansion tank pipe and black caps on the strut tops,but im being seriously anal...but i doubt that matters as you can see from the car that you are lol.

thumbs up from me!  great car!

oh!  and a blue cap on the CO pot.

Dan your obsessed with those blue caps!

Nice one Alex, finished it off lovely does the interior. Nice to see you've gone for a bit of a gamble with the red instead of playing it safe with black leather. The missus didnt like it but its a thumbs up from me, (what do girls know anyway)!

Cant wait to have a good look round it, you going to BVF?
