Hello all,

decided to join up today as have read much about piston heads in evo and other motoring press.Looks pretty intersting so far.

Cant compete with most of the owners cars on here but i drive a Gen1 (swoopy) Hyundai coupe and am an active member of the HCCUK forum and owners club.

DennisTheMenace...have you been looking under my bonnet when ive had my back turned????

In addition to the list there is a 2.0Beta engine with Cold air induction kit. There is a fast road cam waiting to go in (when the weather warms up a bit), and she has had some F2 evo boots with verdestein Sportracs since that pic was taken.

Planning a trip to the 'ring in '07 (not sure if any coupes have done it before??) before which time it will be getting some new dampers and better brakes.

Cheap fun. Also fully agree with the apaulling job hyundai made of the Gen 2 model not sure what they were smokin' when that one got signed off!
