my only question on this now is why spend all that money to buy the car and turn it into virtually a trophy - why didnt you just buy a trophy, fit climate control, different seats and chip it?

How has he tried to turn his car into a trophy? All he has done is purchased the suspension that is installed on a trophy and why not. Not everyone wants a red car but would like improved handling. Also, retro fitting climate control is not worth the time or aggrevation. Plus it would probably cost an arm and a leg.

hang on a second Big Peaches, if you've had the sachs fitted why haven't you enlightened the rest of us as to how much you paid? Didn't i see on your car domain site that you'd only spent 500+ on your mods, perhaps they are not as expensive as we all feared :?
