Manwell ED XR8 Sprint
Cobalt blue
Sunroof
Cruise
Genie extractors
Steeda short shifter
Single 2.5" exhaust (shite, press bent)

Pretty much stock, but its low kms, pretty good nick, it rips a good skid, and it drives nice.
Needs more power but, got some stuff in the pipeline, long way down the pipe though :lol:

Sprint gets a hektik shiftlight tomorrow, I got some gauges destined for the A-Pillar for when I can be farked, and a whole heap of shit on my bedroom floor that will see it get a build thread soon :D
Also put a Billet shortshifter in with positive stops to replace the Steeda one last weekend (cheers Dave for the help).
Very nice.
