Hi from near Manchester

  1. Hi all

    Just picked up an Orange 54 plate RS for a steal (needs some work, but nothing that i'm scared of doing myself). I'm spending a lot of time at the moment working out what the previous owners have done and in some cases undoing it or redoing it properly.

    Overall the car is in decent nick, just needs some TLC.

    I've not had a car for about 6 years now, doing all my travelling on my motorbike (KTM Superduke 990 - also orange). I'm from the Rochdale / Oldham area near Manchester; I see that there are a few other members near me.

    I'll post pics of the car once it's all sorted.

    Cheers

    Ben

  9. Got a couple of pics

    I know it shouldn't have the F1 team stickers - that's a previous owner's handywork, including the damage to the bumper, i'll be taking all the stickers off when i get the paint sorted ;]

    and the first thing i have actually 'changed' and not just fixed, painted the silver brembos with TED38 paint to match the bodywork, they were looking tired after 12 years of abuse!

    Got an ABS / Traction control system fault to fix next, and then it's on to the bodywork when the weather gets a bit warmer / dryer!
