Liking it but not sure on the wheels? 15" steels would be my choice! Though it's nice to see such a good base model.

Thats cool, I love how simple it is.

I wouldn't even change the engine, the wee 1.0 pushroads are bulletproof!! :D

i am also unsure about the wheels as it is staying as standard as possible but not sure about steels as it might just look abit to grandady!

looks good.

I had a 1.2 A reg in Parchment a few years back. it ended up with a snowplough, gte skirts, an sr rear spoiler & some 6j14 opel steelies (see baxters threads in styling). oh & a gte engine. the old bill never looked at it cos beige cars don't go fast, do they...

I've got a brown centre console in the garage, if you are interested, pm me..
