GeordieInExile Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Mmmmm... very nice. Although I'd rather have the grey one you also once owned, what with it having sound deadening and all. Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it even though it just made me pay £450 for it to go through its MOT. Your new one is one of the best R50/53 colours, like. Looks ace. Will be even better with the 15" steelies on.

Fat_Pirate Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Those 17"s are massively heavy, little wonder these things ride so badly with that much unsprung weight hanging off them. Jim Bell and Vince70 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Split_Pin Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 R50s are handsome wee buggers I think. Smashing colour too, all the better that you can see lots of it from inside the car too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandylegs Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Bought my first R53 a couple of months ago, think they have been breeding as I now have three and a forth on the way. Future classic - they will not stay thus cheap with the amount being broken at the minute. Let me know if you need any bits ?

Can't take any more time off work so if they can't fit me in on Saturday, it'll be a refund I think. xtriple 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Bell Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 Really enjoying driving this little thing. Scene. And back to standard. Ideal shopping car. In fact, I like it so much, I think I'm going to roffle it and spend a lot more money on a really good one. skattrd, Tickman, greengartside and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
