Big Lad that looks remarkably like my old one just with different wheels. I had black bk racing 238 alloys on mine though. The reg was k85 suy. It's not yours is it? I'm in Birmingham and sold it to a guy in sutton coldfield. It was running 313bhp when with me. I wouldn't race one off the blocks it would murder you! I remember racing a poser in a ferrari testarossa with his trophy girlfriend! I was all over him. Had we stopped I'm sure she would have got in my car instead ;)

I'll post a pic up of mine when I'm home.

Mines was j reg (j403 E**). It 17 BLACK GTR ALLOYS, TINTED, FRONT LIP CONVERSION.
there are few in birmingham but rare.
 
My mate has one tuned to 300bhp (at the moment) and it is unbeliveably quick. He reckons it can do 0-60 in about 4.5 - 5 secs. It's amusing when chavs try to race him in their Saxo's!

i would LOVE one as track car. but every time i have been to a cruise. there is some poor chap standing next to his GTIR as its broken down.
So i wouldnt buy one. but they are VERY cool.
 
I loved mine but it started to get expensive when it got to 74k miles so I sold up. A great car and you will be hard pushed to find so much power for so little money.I really enjoyed mine but given the miles I do now I enjoy the comfort of my LCR and I don't miss the fuel bills ;)

Glad I had one though really enjoyed it. I think this car started life in cradley heath since it was imported before I bought it. I know the guy who bought it off me fitted a front mounted intercooler.

i suppose this is true. just sad there are so many abused examples around now. rare to see one that is well looked after. i know of one guy who looks after his and its like 300BHP plus, hes an older boy who has spent silly money on it. i used to look up to him as a kid when i had my rover 216si (Yes you can laugh now).

But his car was stunning, and so so so stupidly fast. his best mate owned a 450bhp cosworth. those two were mad.
