Your car (And the stages its been through - 56K)

[Phil W]

What stages has your car been through under your/previous ownership?

I miss my R5, looked awesome considering it was only a look a like, below are picd of what it looked like early on in its life, and the stages it went through under my ownership.

How it used to look (when previous owner had it)

How it looked when i bought it (for £300 !)

When i had it colour coded...

When i crashed it...

When i fixed it, and put the finishing touched on...

And the interior...

And how it looked when I sold it (for £1300 )

This was my Mondeo in February 2004, the day after I bought it:

Then I fitted the bodykit and exhuast...

And finally the spoiler. Here is what it now looks like:

Interior still the same:

But I added bluetooth hands free phone system with cradle..

Didn't know you had aftermarket speakers in there Fox.

This space is reserved for tomorrow for when I'm no longer 'quite merry'.

The car as it looked when I bought it (I had had it for about two weeks when I took this):

The car as it looked January last year. I hadn't done anything more to the car since then

Front/Side view:

Here you can see the alloy wheels, painted callipers and chromed wing mirrors

Back/Side view:

Here you can see the tinted rear lights and chromed exhaust

Wheel view:

This is just a close up of the alloy wheel and painted callipers

Interior view:

Here you can see the replacement silver centre console (stock is black) and my ICE system

From this:

To this:

Various stereos and speakers have been in it and tidied up the engine bay with loads of new parts from citroen. But I won't bore you with that! Was going to get it lowered but I'll be returning it to standard to sell it soon so haven't bothered.

Been a nice little first car, I will miss it.

How I got the car:

During the rebuild:

Getting an exhaust made:

For the retro cars photoshoot thingy:

And again:

I'm now in the middle of some major works - changing the fuel tank for a plastic one, moving the battery to the boot, adding in a cd player, and hopefully getting the bodywork slowly sorted!

Woah - that's really subtle, but just seems to make such a difference

Much prefer the way it looks after the crash and fix than before.

 

[Pajeh]

All I have done on my car is add a sub/amp and clean it

 

[MrMatteh]

i'm still in the process of altering my car

just basic colour coding (back to original) and a set of alloys. considering lowering slightly.

heres how it looked at the start when i bought it

(on a hill there, so looks like its on stilts )

Me too mate , did myself a favour crashing it really

 

[Freefaller]

Looks great now piggy

Bear - your car makes me drool every time I see it...

 

[mrk]

Current car, nothing much changed except for audio and some minor touches, only plans are to add some nice 5 spokes, not really into the heavy at the moment (need monies )

My last car though...

And 6 months later...

Good thing the crash happened really, got more than double what I paid for it by the insurance (paid £560 and got £1100 after valuation)
