Not really my cup of tea and I'd not have done the blue engine bay but you clearly take a lot of pride in it...

Welcome...

PS I heard someone's put an impreza drivetrain into a focus.... just in case you were thinking of changing the blue wink

I read that list and anticipated not appreciating the pictures, but once I scrolled down I was pleasantly surprised!

As others have said, you have obviously put some time and effort into the car.

Which engine is it?

Is the roll cage proper, or just a show cage?

Why spend money on any car?? each to their own.

The cage is a show cage not a proper one. The engine is a 2.0.

Less show now than before. as for the go i am working on it but rent comes first.

Yes. It's an air intake.

Shame as it looked better before you crashed it.

Also, i will be keeping an eye on things you have for sale, once you have an internet reputation it is hard to shake it off.

FWIW, car looks quite good.

Known on another forum?

This guy seems to be coming in for a bit of stick but I'm not sure why. Okay, the car isn't to my tastes but I can see some effort has gone into it and it doesn't look like the usual bodykitted chav special.

Just a bit... for taking money for parts and doing a runner, on a number of forums.

Agreed, the car is ok, quite like it.
