Its been just over a year now since i bought lukes(manphibian) old gen6 GT. Since then ive crashed it into a lampost in the snow. Fitted a new bumper and crash bar to sort that one out. After that ive had on going idle problems for almost a year which i hope will be sorted this week with a replacement thermostat. The skirts began to lose more and more paint and with the replacement bumper looking tatty ive decided to have the car resprayed (same colour). Most recently my driveshaft snapped which was pretty shocking. Just replaced the driveshaft and cv joint.
Ive also decided to paint the alloys white when the car goes to the spray shop. I bought some 17" Dezent wheels to put it on while its there (£55!) which im guna refurb and sell on! Il get some more pictures of the car as it is at the moment later in the week! This post has been edited by Tom88: May 6, 2010 - 9:15 AM |

Just got the new shocks fitted and changed the lambda sensor.
The ride is SOO much better now as ive been driving on the busted shocks for about 2months now! My idle problem seems to be solved, which is a great relief because it was around this time last year that the problem started! All ive got to do now is wait for 3rd of may and a fresh lick of paint!
