I'm not sure if I prefer the blue or the red, they both look awesome, though the blue with your wheels does look sweet. Nice one dude.

Cardiff is faily local! I may have to pop down.

Cant realy argue with £100 saves the hassel of grinding off welds to use existing parts.

Just getting the car down to them :(

Gutted normaly a big show, never seen any 300 volvos there. Im going in my MK2 Escort Mexic.

I noticed your running a variable Fuel Pressure regulator, is this required or is the standard one more than up to the job?
