Looking evil as ever mate, been a while since I last saw it in the flesh down at Powerstation when you were upgrading the SC boost. Done any more to it since then?
Loving the plate btw - is it new, don't recall you having that before?

Hi m8
Nope since fitting the smaller pulley I've done nothing to create extra power. I've put the bigger wheels back on and also got back to an adjustable panhard bar in the rear as the watts linkage kept snapping the bolt which was annoying and un-safe.
Thanks for joining up m8. :)
I was thinking exactly the same thing as tystar, up until the picture inside the car park where I had to admit that I would be rather 'partial' to one of those.
Ever since I saw Barricade in Transformers I wanted one :p
Nice!
whats the insurance like per month?
I reckon a £24 million lottery winner wouldn't get Tystar insured on that Snigger
OOH NICE! I so want that! :drool:

HI there
That is the surprising thing, one of the cheapest cars I've insured and with all mods declared I pay circa £530 per 12 months on it. :)
Post some dash board pics with the dials lit up too

Not bad for a left hooker! How many years NCB?

I'm Currently crying at my desk at how much you pay :cry:cry:cry
I pay almost 4 X that on my Alfa and thats Standard with no mods :cry:cry
Although the 6 month ban for totting and 0 NCB would have something to do with that :cop:
Looks good, goes quick, not much room in the back of it mind :p
Looks lovely. I watched the top gear test on these only the other day and a lower BHP but proper suspension setup went round the track nearly 3 seconds quicker then the SC one with 500 BHP!
You need a go in a proper handling car before you say its good. Im talking engine in the rear;)

Gibbo's has a lot of engine work and a lot of suspension work, believe me, it sticks to the road VERY well and goes extremely well too, long gearing means you hit high speeds in low gears. :D
I have to say, it's one of the better handling cars I've been in, plus I love FR layout in cars. I've been in an Exige S, which whilst great, just isn't quite the same sort of thing. :)

HI there
My come came from the factory with the same suspension setup as the lower BHP one you mention with a proper suspension setup that wa 3s quicker around the track.
The reason the Shelby GT500 was slow around Top Gear track was because they weigh 1850kg weight distribution is 58% on the front nose and 42% in the rear.
Mine is not a Shelby, but a Saleen, it shares in standard form the same suspension setup as the Roush which was the car which went 3s around the Top Gear test track.
However I found that uprated suspension setup not good enough and as such mine now has fully adjustable suspension all round. The Roush which featured on top gear only had uprated springs/shocks, uprated front and rear rollbar and larger brakes, thats it. Oh and it had 415BHP.
Mine has adjustable shocks, uprated springs, adjustable front roll-bar, even thicker rear rollbar, adjustable lower control arms, adjustable upper control arm, adjustable panhard bar, uprated panhard brace, G-Trac brace, Bumpsteer kit, X5 balljoint kit. Brembo Brake kit and more importantly sticky summer tyres. Then plus the fact I went a bit crazy on the power side and have pushed her upto 570BHP.
So to put it in a nutshell mine weighs a bit less than the Roush, has further uprated suspension and even more power than the Shelby had. In other words it does everything quite well. :D
In regards to driving car with engine in the rear, well I've driven rear engined, mid engine, front engine along with FWD, AWD and RWD. ;)
The Mustang not the best handling car I've driven or owned but with all the mods its up there with some of the good ones. :)
dashboard pics? :)

Which wheels are on it at the moment, those or the shiney ones? I can't remember all the way back to August when I was last in it. :p

Hi m8
Sold the smaller wheels, back to the bling bling now. :D

Ah...I prefer the smaller ones...not as bling. :p
:drool: :drool: :drool:
Must have cost you an absolute fortune! Kinda puts my PC obsession into perspective.
Not sold it yet then? :p
Hi m8
Nope its no longer advertised mainly due to me wanting to get a few jobs sorted on it.
Fixed the handbrake now, just waiting for the new bonnet then all done.
I will give you five pounds.

Ok, well that's bought you a wheel nut ;)

Thats my line! :lol: :lol:

I don't see your name on it!
What happened to the bonnet and handbrake?
Handbrake turn into a pedestrian GTA style? :cop::cop::cop::cop::cop:

Hi there
The ratchets teeth inside the handbrake worn down and so the lever no longer clicked up. Replacement from US arrived Friday, fitted that over weekend.
The bonnet, well the leading edges would get pain bubbling due to water getting under the paint and reacting with the Aluminium causing paint to bubble/flick off at leading edges.
So found a new bonnet without the problem, had it treated and full re-spray.
I don't see your name on it!:lol:
I've been in the front and the back, loads of space in both. :confused:
My legs were completely split by the seat in front of me and i had to be careful as i almost hit my head on the roof :p

Sweet, Thats what i like to hear:cool:
The steering wheel is o the wrong side :surprised:

:D :D
I think it has something to do with why the handbrake and hood needed replacing...
Too much "wear and tear".

You aren't much taller than me. I fitted fine in the car when it was 4 up at the last pub meet. You're just odd.

Hi there
My mate Rappsy photoshopped the picture removing the front plate and to give the motion of movement, still dont stop the :cop: from pulling me though.
Next time I'm back in the UK, you'll have to come visit us, I'll take you in the 600hp GT Speed if I can get a drive in the beast :D

Yes, of course. ;)
Shiney :D
Hi there
Yep even more so now with newly painted bonnet and several additional layer of DoDo wax or whatever its called. :D
Though at the moment the car is covered in snow, glad got the 306 with all this snow, I'd have never made it into work with the Mustang.
Gonna get 667 plates for the 306? :lol:

Speaking of 666:

If Gibbo responds then he loses his cool postcount.
:p
If Gibbo had stuck to a single Fiat Punto he could have had a fairly large house right about now :p instead it's gone down the drain in the form on depreciation. VERY NICE CAR THOUGH :)

HI there
If I had got a house when I got the Mustang that would have gone down the drain too with depreciation due to the recession and house prices falling massively. :p

Git.. my insurance went up by more when I had to put my 17 year old on it... from £190 to £780..... bloodsucking vampires children are :(
I hate it when kids go on their parents insurance, I think they should ban it.
Should start their own NCB from the off.

There's a nice Mustang car I usually see at my hospital's car park and I used to wonder if it belonged to a flashy young doctor, but it turns out to be a middle-aged woman. Always confuses me...

Nice, she has got good taste. :)
Do you still own her?
I still remember her when you first bought her when the reg was FN55 AEZ or something, very sexy new reg :)
You done much to her? I see the powers went up a bit.

HI m8
Glad to see you around these parts m8. :)
Yeah that was the old reg, good memory you have.
Yep power at flywheel was 576BHP at last dyno, suspension is now adjustable and did have a watts linkage in for a while but UK roads kept snapping the bolt in it due to our roads been so fully of holes.
But yep still got her, though she has not been out to play in this weather, using a 306 HDI for moment and am probably gonna move the Mustang on in next month or so.

There's the rub with a "nice" car... you don't wanna risk it in crap conditions!! :p
I'll stick with my pretty little C1 :D Almost no road tax, very little insurance, nice enough mileage. I wish I was similarly thrifty when it came to building my computers

Hi there
Well looks like she might be going this Wednesday coming. :)
So am gonna find some videos of the car and get them posted up.
But the sun is out now full on and its warming up so I think I need to get out of bed now, just watched F1 qualifying and go drive the Mustang and make sure the whole of Stoke is awake. :D
Give it the beans:thumb:
Hi m8
I have, just made everyone in the house feel like there was an earthquake going down. Muhahaahahah :D
Gonna give EVO and Stang a good clean now and then go for a drive. :)
I wanted to snowfoam my car but its ****ing down here, Also wanted to fit my new wheels:(
I hope its not raining for tomorrow:(

Well its sunny here, but odd shows, I really wanted to wax them but with these showers that could be very un-wise, just settle for a wash me thinks and wax tomorrow as looks like a sunny day all day tomorrow.
I am gonna have a car cleaning weekend and visit the gym later today, tomorrow and Monday. I've been slacking and its time to get back in shape so I can hit the beach in confidence this Summer. :D
