Type R and VTEC owners

There are some proper morons on the road. Outside of my flat window I can see a pretty busy road with traffic calming, the type where half the road is blocked. Thing is, Watford council are idiots, they have put the most ridiculous calming measures around here. This one is on a blind bend, genius idea! Anyway I've seen 1 head on so far at slow speed and another where a BMW ended up sideways going round it and someone went into the side of him.

You can get the bronze painted, its not annodised
It's more hard wearing when it's anodised, we do it at work for our painted parts, sturdy outcome!
Can't do wheels, not big enough - I'm positive a local company will do it if you went the second hand route.

Why would you have an FN2 and leave linglongs on it? It's all very well keeping them till they die but you just can't enjoy the car for fear of crashing it.

Previous owner fitted them to the front, I can only assume because he knew he would be trading it in as the history is full main dealer
It drives fine on them for now, a little skittish but I dont have a problem with that, its winter so I'll change them when the weather gets better

Oddly the only car that overtook me today on the M69 was an FN2 steaming along at 65.
Just put a picture of mine in Show us your motors.
So here's some alternative Insights at the other end of the speed spectrum.
White is a K20a with 120 shot of NOx that runs 11.4 sec @ 120mph
Black is a K24 turbo!

Always good to buy a car thats had the right ownership attitude applied to it without any corner cutting.

Always good to pay for premium tyres when you're about to trade a car in for a brand new Focus
What kind of idiot does that?
The car has full main dealer histroy, troll somewhere else Fox
Finally! What year is it?
Relentless, I would consider the Michelin pilot super sports when you come to change.
AM has them on his car and Gibbo has been running them on the 911 and they both speak highly.
Wet performance is unreal and even as a passenger you can feel a lot of the feedback from the car.
May be worth a look as they have only just started making them in a size that fits the FN2 and ep3
