I recognise that car from my Lboro days! He used to have BBS rims didn't he?

Cheers for the comments:)

Hey Danny, am I right in saying you ran 15mm spacers all round on the LCR? Was that standard LCR wheels? I have 15mm at the rear and thinking about going either 12 or 15 at the front also.

Trying to figure out whether this is a good option in regards to feel and looks.

Cheers

Yep, ran 15mm all round on my road LCR wheels and track starfish wheels.

I got very minor scrubbing with the starfish wheels, but none worth talking about with OEM LCR wheels. 15mm on the front really helps turn in response, much sharper feel. HTH.

Bet its more fun to drive that the Chevy Impala I hired last time in Canada/USA. 3.5l V6 barge.

Previous g/f of mine had a 1.0L Kia Picanto. Gearbox was huge, like a tractor, think that thing must have developed a scorching 1.2bhp :)

Thanks. It is sold now so may reappear at somepoint, although in standard guise!

Nice car, good luck with MK2
:)

Cheers, MK2 is going well, 4weeks until its 'ring induction!
