Default I finally got it

Well,

As per my previous post, I said I had purchased and I finally picked it up today ( did not want to tempt fate ). After driving round in either the Mini cooper ( 1.3i ) on dry days or a 1.2 clio, it was grate to get back in an S. I know everyone talks about the lack of torque but after driving the above, it really does pull at the bottom end. Has been raining most of the day so not bothered with going out for a spin, decided to give it another polish instead

Just waiting for a nice dry day to get some VTEC action as after my last episode, I have to admit I was a little scared of letting rip in the cool damp conditions.







Great to be back.

Despite how poorly red is generally received, I like it a lot.

It looks like you've got 04 wheels on there (assuming the car's an 06)?
