Close, but no cigar
My offer was accepted so what the heck, another glimpse. This should really give the game away.
Super immaculate condition, leather, Nav, I'm excited. Stoked to be getting back into a Japanese motor.
So, given it is 12 years old and looks like new still underneath, I want to keep it that way. What (clear) products are good for coating underneath to protect from british winters?
Silver
S15 judging by the heater vents.
Beautiful cars, keep this one away from the drift circuit, needs to be kept unmarked, if you must drift it then go Oulton Park to do that where there is little to nothing to hit.
MORE PICS!

A lot of win going on at OcUK lately. Whats going off?

Silvia S15 shirley?
Yes, I'm reluctant to put pics up because I don't have it in my possession yet, and it looks super weak on stock wheels and suspension.
This is it though.
Now, imagine it with cool wheels and low down like this, just without the big aero kit.
Factory aero skirts and rear spats are on the wish list, like this car has..
Would have liked a factory Aero car, but end of the day that is just stick on plastic, and this car is in superb condition and has the very rare L-package and optional Navi (doesn't work outside of Japan, but I'm sure I can do something cool with the popup screen).

These events are getting ever more tenuous, Bratislava?! It's an easy Motorway drive all the way. It's hardly some sort of acheivement to get there like Ulanbatar or something
Sadly most of the drive is really rather dull - make sure you stop off at some places along the way to add some interest.

As posted in the 'Stuff I Bought' thread 
Just a Greenline Estate Fabia, but I'm an old man and I need the mpg not bhp!
I'll get better pics up once I have my grubby mits on her on Friday!

I would have expected nothing less.

I never expected Silvia's to be so... plain, some nice wheels and a bit lower and they are so beautiful

SR20DE (N/A) engine is 165bhp? 328i is 220?
328 is 193 and it weighs 200kg more. Ofc, the DE won't have the sound or the torque, but meh.
Anyway, the plan is to run the BMW for another 11 months and during that time build the Silvia to a spec which I'm happy with before using it. If I do get impatient and decide to rock it with the NA motor, shouldn't be a total slug.

New company car
This is my MG ZT 190+ which I bought for £770 in January as I fancied something larger and more powerful than my old 1.6 Focus. I've done around 7000 miles in it since January, and it's been quite good actually. It's an utter shed in terms of condition and has its fair share of little problems, but I like it. Here it is amongst some beautiful Essex scenery.

You didn't think the second photo would be better without the McDonalds bag in it?

Damn litter bugs!

That's an integral part of the beautiful Essex scenery!
My Condolences
The only thing I really don't like about those astras, are the millions of pointless buttons!
