Looks stunning! Really like the green and carbon combination. The result is well worth all the effort you've put in to create something different. Top job!

hehe i have heard that from many people now that it looks almost like a Focus RS.
Must be the green color but it is not the RS color it is the green from Scirocco but looks quite asame.

This is what you call a serious project. Big respect! I would be scared to take it on the road in the case someone went into the back of me lol. Either mods are very cheap in Sweden or it was you who won the £160m Lottery . I have one question is your partner still with you? Hahaha

Click to expand...

Thanks! Im not afraid i use the car all year around besides when we are modding something on it.. in the end it is just a car and a car should be used i think.

No most parts are more expensive in sweden and also higher VAt then in UK. So actually many of my part i have bought from Uk..

And no lottery wins im afraid. But if i did win something i would do much more on it
I do much things my self and with the kind help of my friend so i save much money on that

reg my Partner. No she's no longer with me, im single for now xD haha

I have been on 4 meets/shows with the car and have got some prices thats quite fun

here i am at Vallåkraträffen outside Helsingborg in Sweden.

One of the Finalist in Pirelli awards, and European cars.


Little burnout show on the airfield.


also many from the croud that was on the show got a testrun upp and down on the airfield.

0-240-40-200-0 x 15 times..
the brakes cought on fire. They worked very good just that they where little to hot to come to a complete stop after all the rund
Some pics:




My Brand new for the Weekend Pirelli P-zero Corsa Tyres after some play on the airfield


But it was Fun and worth it anyway..



The Weekend ended up with a
1 place in European cars


2'nd place in Pirelli Awards 2011

little different pics..

me in the car happy


I weighed the car with little lesser than half tank..
hmm little heavier than it was before. haha




Here you can se my Old "new" Pirelli Corsa Tyres. xD


I will use the Ordinary Pirelli P-zero for the rest of this Season as it is getting wetter and colder. So i think they will perform better in this conditions.




Big Thank you to Pirelli !!

also we tought we should take on the doorsides again this last weekend with help of my friend Henrik.

here they are painted black the doorsides was grey before as they came from a Leon 1,6 or something... i just put the speakers there to see how they fit after glasfiber and soo..




My friend Henrik

I used Silentcoat every eher that i could inside and on the backside.




One side ready and Mounted.

Some Random Pictures..




I had to run in the new tyres xD

I just read this build thread from start to finish... car is simply awesome... i wasnt keen on the JE kit when you first got it but the wide body sections and the blending etc you have done since have made it fit really well overall... Again, i wasnt sure on the green but it suits the style of the car perfectly.

My favourite part of the car has to be the HRE rims and brakes... they just set the whole thing off in my opinion.

Looking forward to new updates as you progress the engine build now

Click to expand...

Cool that you checked all the thread.
And glad that you like how it is turning upp whit everything
I think the brakes and the rims are my favaorite also on the car

A little picture update is cooming from the engine in a couple of min
Thanks!

RobDon said:

Does look great and it's good to see you use it too, not just a trailer queen.

Click to expand...

No trailerqueen here. I have it as my Daily driver all year around.
It is a car and they are built to be used.
Thanks!
