Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

What ever was cheap from Amazon. At least 2000a but not how to test the figures.

I haven’t worked since February, so assumptions may need a small adjustment in some areas.

Hahahaha

You did express interest in buying a set of BBS LMs :)

While we're at it though there is a world of excellent JDM wheels that would look fantastic on a 996 and cost less...

Such as? I once saw a set of TE37’s in 5x130, regretted not buying those.

Thanks! Thats what I thought I had done, but I’ll try a different brand. The cables to the crocodile clips on that one were scarily skinny

TE37s would be very nice indeed!

Desmond Regamaster EVO II

Work Meister S1 / M1 / L1 orWork Seeker FX would all look pretty great I think but not sure how easy it would be to find 5x130 without ordering custom perhaps?

Work Meister S1

These MOMO Heritage wheels are pretty great also...

They're all very aftermarket though aren't they?

Depends on the desired vibe I suppose? TE37s wouldn't be much less JDM looking...

I think a set of those Work Seeker FX wheels would look very well actually and not too strong a look...

Found my dream car last night

Love that the boot is carpeted.

More of a ute I guess.

Will photo mine later, so that you can compare.

Thank you!

Anyone fancy my Clio 172 Cup for £2900?

Saw pictures of that on Facebook and thought it was an ai Photoshop

Wasn't someone looking at buying an R53 or some other hot hatch recently? This would be a great alternative!

I wouldn’t bother, it’s still registered as a saloon. A whole world of pain to get that one legal.

I’m trying to convince Liz food is overrated.

I'm presuming Liz is your significant other... if she were to be driving this she could fully adopt Lot Lizard as her cool new nickname... this should get it over the line!

What about 3D printing with steel? https://www.joh.cam.ac.uk/using-lasers-heat-and-beat-3d-printed-steel-could-help-reduce-costs

TBH wouldn't mind getting rid of my R53 for a 172 Cup but I think air con is a non negotiable with my o/h
