This will be a daily car for most of the year once the final bit's are sorted... (oil leak, noisy gearbox, stuck shut passenger door, no door locks, new brake pads, underside sealed, new door/window seals, added lamps for night driving and so on... )

1965...

(the bonnet is on the to-do list.. but it's not really a priority at the moment )

Lovely, any chance of some more pics? You're a brave man for running it as a daily most commendable sir! :cool:

p0ss3s3d · 22 Nov 2011 at 18:01

Sure, I'll try and get a few more this weekend once (hopefully) I've sorted this leak and put the bonnet back on (and aligned it

)

In the meantime... an interior shot - please excuse the quality... (eagle eyed will notice a few bit's unoriginal and to change - door check strap, badge on dash, wheel, gear stick knob etc. - fear not originality freaks, it will be done!!!)

Will it be kept undercover?

Garaged overnight. In the day a normal car exposed to everything (except snow - I'll take the bus then!) and used for everything - although it can't really be taken on the motorway (60mph [indicated

] is about 4200rpm and it's dwarfed by hatchbacks let alone lorries!)

Tonneau will go on if theres a chance of rain though during my trip/whilst it's parked. If it is raining then I'll put the roof on (a slightly laborious task - unfolding material and erecting the tent like structure, then fitting material and attaching it to the roof ). If it's a clear summers day then I'll leave the covers off so people can have a nose.

Good on you, I'm considering the idea of a classic next but will all depend on whether or not I get a garage when I buy my house.

Interior looks good, looking forward to some more pics after the weekend

Brap.

Someone spray painted my side repeater black. :\

Muffin` · 22 Nov 2011 at 21:34

That air freshener is so gangsta, bet the hoe's love it.

Well since there aren't any pictures on this page...

How are you getting on with the clutch? They can be sharp but quite high up?

Clown · 22 Nov 2011 at 23:17

I'm jerking around like a teenager who just found his dad's stash. Still getting used to it really.

Princey · 22 Nov 2011 at 23:21

LOL I still get all excited even after owning it for over a year and that shows no sign of changing.

Sukh · 22 Nov 2011 at 23:21

Lol snap, I keep failing to pull away from lights properly. Sounds glorious though!

Clown · 22 Nov 2011 at 23:26

Yeah, I do the fanny thing and do first really slowly then put it straight into second. That's still stronger than anything I've ever owned.

Where in Chelsea are you?

Sukh · 22 Nov 2011 at 23:33

I've moved since then, I haven't updated my profile.

Anyways, here are the poor pictures I have:

It's an 07 GT with the 313 HR engine and sat nav.

Only mods planned are to wrap it purple and get JDM front reflectors to get rid off the orange stripes

Clown · 22 Nov 2011 at 23:47

I'm just going to put my stereo in it and that's about it.

Cookeh · 23 Nov 2011 at 02:10

That Yaris is the best looking Yaris I've ever seen!

Clown · 23 Nov 2011 at 10:45

Sukh, how gash is our keys?

I was bored yesterday so I went to buy one after work.If I thought about it too long I might have had second thoughts! It's an expensive toy but I plan on keeping it for a long long time! I'm looking forward to learning how to drive a 'proper' car!

Just remind me not to drink hot chocolate in this one.

Haha love it!

"Just fancied a 350Z so bought one last night." Enjoy

Kerming · 23 Nov 2011 at 16:20

@Sukh question. Did you get that car from the Bristol region? ie Thornbury?

ronski · 23 Nov 2011 at 18:40

Recently changed my daily driver (previously had a Discovery 4):

2012 Range Rover Sport Supercharged
Sumatra Black
Tan Interior - extended leather
Electric Glass Sunroof
Harmon Kardon Logic 7
Dealer fit - 20" Style 7 Diamond Cut Wheels, Chrome Mirror Caps, Running Boards and mudflaps

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Then something for the weekend:
2009 Carrera S
30k km
PDK gearbox
19" Carrera S II wheels
Bose Stereo
Terracotta/Black leather interior

If you had of asked me last year if I would have owned these two cars - I would not have believed you. Amazing what a difference a new job and 12 months can make.
