Just gotta get rid of the very noisy Pirelli P6000 tyres that are on the car, fitted by the previous owner.

They make a sound like worn wheel bearings!

(Added 07 July.)


Got a new set of Goodyear LS2000's on her today. Bye bye to the old Pirelli's and that dreadful tyre noise.

9 and 1/2 year update.

Around 3 years ago it became obvious that the engine was becoming very tired. Oil consumption was high and it just lacked power. So I had the engine removed and completely rebuilt. Then 18 months ago the clear coat started to crack and peel (Aussie Sun and Japanese C/Coat just don't get on too well) so the car was completely repainted. The tyres were also changed for Continental ContiPremium Contact 2's.
Next project is to have the 4 factory alloy wheels refurbished.
