So with the Punto being a catastrophic MoT failure way back at the start of last year and the Civic going nowhere for ages (and to be honest not being quite what I wanted, plus the panels needed some TLC before I could start properly doing any mods) I've done something maybe a little bit silly and bought something else.
I got this instead:
Notice how it comes pre-loaded with Peugeot SP kit including wheel arch extensions, front grill and spoiler? Starting out with a 205, I guess I've always been more into French hatches, complete with all their quirks.
Ok, first impressions . . Very nice :) not built quite as well as the beemer but overall not bad.
The engine (136bhp Diesel) is very responsive and the handling is very impressive. Interior is nice and solid, seats are very comfortable.
Anyway, the photos . . .
It looks very aggressive here !! :amazed:
not bad from side . . .
not sure from the back . .
but I like the interior !!
Hi all, I think I'm doing this right? :confused:
Just a quick note to say I have added pictures of my Granada to an Album on my profile! ;)
Chris.. :blink1:
New to the forum. Not done a huge amount of custom work yet but some of what I have done took me a long time (doube din facia - they don't exsist on 75/ZTs). Facia still needs a bit of work and inline filter yet to be complete. Fitted new dash and steering wheel although I have no photos of hat yet.
We have a lot of members here on TorqueCars, and most (if not all) have a car. So feel free to post one picture of each car you currently own and tell us a little bit about it.
Enjoy! :bigsmile:
Thanks for allowing me to join your site. My name is ryan and i live in kentucky. I have a 1995 ford probe gt with a 2.5 5 speed.

I have done a few Modifications to the car since buying it in dec of last year and am looking at doing a lot more to it when the cash flow improves!

Hi All,
Stumbled across the site whilst reading a write up on a V6 Mk1 Astra.
Well I also have a Mk1 Astra running a chipped 2.0 16v Turbo (C20LET) and a 6 speed box (F28 ) giving 272BHP.
Full custom made leather interior too :)
The car had a ground up restoration over the last 18 months (a re shell of my old one) and now looks like this. Hope you like
did anyone go down to sittingbourne today?
there was a classic car and classic bike show on at the greyhound track.
some really nice trikes too, there was a honda fireblade trike and a few hotrods,
didnt manage that many pics as i couldnt find my camara but borrowed my dads camara phone for a few.
Aup!
Just sold my little baby!!! Which was alot harder to do then realised even though i had my new phat 172 Cup parked at the side of it. These little cars are great fun and with little changes can be quite surprising at times!!! When i bought the car it was in a sorry state but with lots of TLC
the car seemed to sit in a legue of its own.
Here are sum photo's of her:

This is my old car, a ford Sportka 1.6. Coilovers, 300mm brake conversion, lightweight alloys, a few engine mods, stripped out interior.
This was one fun car to drive. Handleing was insane. Sometimes wish i hadnt got rid:sad2:, but i wanted more power!:toung: It stopped too quick though! Lol
With my lasses ST,
This is my current car. With our lasses ST. Mines the blue one.

Hi all, in my time away from this fantastic forum I went to TRAX 2008. It was a great day out and a real experience. There was a good show of car clubs from across the UK, and the largest collection of Fords and Vauxhalls I have ever seen! There was also action on the track and a chance to do a run. In the show area there was a selection of ICE-out rides, dancing girls (sorry...no pics) and various stuff to buy. EA (Electronic Arts) were also showing previews of some the new games due out soon! There was also the great finally of hundred's of modified cars leaving at once.

Todays standard screen resolution is 1024x768 pixels. Some use higher res, some use lower, but this seems to be the most used res. When using a BB such as this with this screen res, the largest you want to upload a picture is 800pixels wide, as otherwise the screen is widened and you have to scroll along to see the pic, and also any text posts after it aswell - which is not fun!
So bear in mid when resizing your pics, not to go wider than 800 pixels wide!
Now, for you folk with graphics programmes such as Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro (personally I use PSP7) resizing is easy. Just open that programme, open the pic(s) you want to resize and go to your RESIZE option. With most of these programmes you can choose a percentage or a pixel...
So here are some pic's I took when I went out for a drive earlier this evenig. This isn't my car so I won't be doing any work on it allthough I would like to. This isn't the greatest car for tuning but it's reliable and gets me from A to B so it will do untill I can afford something more fun and better for tuning.

There's more in my profile. At present it's waiting on a couple more mandrel bends to arrive so we can finish the FMIC pipework. Since this phot was taken a few more bits have been added to the engine bay but not a great deal, mainly just some chromed items.
Hopefully we'll find time in the next week or so to get it all together, we need the ramp space anyway.:lol:
I'll add some more phots, probably to my profile, when it's back on four wheels.
I did try and post them in the ford section, but to no avail.
Well hope they work here.

Hi
this is my awesome chevy project :D
it is a Chevrolet Suburban made in the fine year 1985 with a 6,2 liter diesel engine. the plan was to do something cool with the paint but since that plan was made the automatic transmission thought it would be a great idea to break down :lol: but it is raised for 35" tyres by icelandic standards NOT the american way :lol:
So now the plan is...
1. Take care of ALL rust in the car ( witch is not much )
2. Put some awesome color on it maybe matte black or matte candy apple red or maybe gloss candy apple red I have´nt made the selection yet :)
3. Put some cool rims on it
4. Stereo
5. Lighting ( xenon )
6. Re-tint the windows
7. New Grille
this will all take a lot of time but I...
P.s. I am not a chav, merely just somebody that is bored with their slow first car
I like it personally, am open to criticism / comments
P.s. I KNOW I need to get some side trim , I also know I need the bonnet to be sprayed, but it will cost me a fair bit and is not important :)
I had just washed the car and realized I had no pictures of it as such
not pretty, but did a job all the same :blink1:
Mini of course! Everyone has to play with one of these!
Chevette-started life with a 1.9 Manta engine, then that expired and in went a Rover V8, semi-space framed front end. A case of tail wagging the dog with this!
Audi GT 2.4i
I also had a 1340 Mini, no pictures, that ran a Longman engine, rallycross spec, 48 Weber, Jack Knight straight cut box and a Quaife slipper. I also designed and fabricated my own coilover rear beam axle. Redundancy put paid to that beauty.
Hi guys.
As i'm sure a few of have read, i have the car booked for some toys and a rolling road setion. Well in the mean time i've been buying up the extra toys that I could without buying them through the tuning company.
What I have so far comprises of:-
New Samco piping for the Blow off Valve.
New Samco cuplink for the Air Intake pipe.
New Samco Water hoses.
New Samco Braded Fuel lines.
A few stickers which include Blitz, HKS Power and the Tuning company I use Xspec.
Also and this is the one I can't wait for, is a sheet of sticky back carbon fibre. It's no thicker than a sheet of vinyl, woven like true carbon fibre and becasue I already have a light weight bonnet from Japan, I dont need to worry about just buying a carbon fibre...
Hi all
I thought I would share some pics of my new ride :cheesy:

Lowering kit
17" rims
tinted windows
exhaust system
stereo
engine tune up
