That E55 is something else. I didn't take much of an interest at the last RR but you have to admit, it's a terrific sleeper.

Even with the badging, it looks so 'normal'.

It'd be interesting to see how fast the speedo climbs compared to how quick it actually feels.

Nice to see Richard made it and didn't blow up on the rollers

Twobacklines would be proud of you matt. You've just filled the void he left behind

richard made 141bhp on said rollers

agw_01 · 22 Jan 2011 at 23:24

Good result, happy with that? What mods?

I spy an integra, part of the group?

Looks like a good day out, can't wait until the big RR meet.

Princey was soooo close to 400.

lol @ the Fiesta.

Blackhawk47 · 23 Jan 2011 at 09:50

Who owned the diesel van?

TomO · 23 Jan 2011 at 10:08

power curve on mine is out as it was spinning up the rollers so the power had to be fed in till about 3500rpm before foot was on the floor.

Could have potentially made a bit more torque as it made peak torque at 2800rpm(ish) last time it was on at powerstation and before and after the remap on AMD's rollers.

Kenai · 23 Jan 2011 at 10:43

I'm sure I mentioned this before and I think Princey said it was because the door was slightly ajar or something at the time but the door on that Monaro looks a different colour to me

:/

Joe T · 23 Jan 2011 at 10:50

What's with the huge transmission losses on the Merc? Is that normal for those engine/transmission combinations or am I missing something?

IAmATeaf · 23 Jan 2011 at 10:54

The door and the rear panel are the same colour/texture finish but to me it looks like the front wing is different.

Nice to see everyone again/meet some new OcUKers.

There does appear to be a mismatch where the door meets the front wing, whether it's the door that'd off colour (but blended at the back) or the wing i'm not sure. It looks more like the door to me but as you say, the rear panel matches up and it would seem odd to blend it in there but not at the front.

edit - though if you increase the contrast to silly levels:

It does seem like 3/4 of the door is just a different colour to the rest of the car, there is a visible change just as you reach the door handle

Booner! · 23 Jan 2011 at 12:04

Yum, Monaro is niice Princey. Good choice of colour too...

Mystery about the colour mismatch? who would spray 3/4 of a door?

Blackhawk47 · 23 Jan 2011 at 12:07

The more I see that red monaro the more I like.

Nice one princey.

EDIT: is it me or do nearly all the pictures posted contain the fiesta van?

Is the Mx5 howards?

Howard · 23 Jan 2011 at 12:39

No it's Vigoros, I wasn't there
