Ive been a member a while but never posted pics of my cars in the readers cars forum, so thought I would share them. For me they offer me everything I need/want. The daily driver offers luxury, comfort, practicality and safety and the Tiv is huge fun!

At a PH wedding recently



Gotta keep it clean



Looking good, nealy finished



The daily driver the toe - rag



A great place to be sat



thumbup Hope you like.

thumbup Thanks

Yeah they dont look like they actually mean anything do they?? Good hehe We have A10HKA, A18HKA & A13HKA and they all spell my wifes name who is Russian. 'H' in Russian is pronounced 'N' her name is Alyona (but nickname is Alyonka - Its a Russian thing rolleyes) We got these as we could not afford M1KES hehe but effectively thats how close it is to her name so the wife is happy

Cheers

Thanks for the mail Malc, good to hear from you, as promised the spec of my V8S engine at the moment is:

4 ltr with Mark Adams Tornado Chip and remap, custom Kent 218 CAM, Ported heads, Larger 5ltr ported inlet manifolds, Larger flared Alloy trumpets, Now putting out 263bhp and 285lbft both at around 6krpm as the power just keeps rising it doesnt dip at the end due to breathing better.

Looking to add NOS after Xmas for that extra kick

Later mate

I've also been on the receiving end of such a compliment... I can understand why they thought my Tiv was nice but am at a loss to know what they saw in my A3!
