I like it , like it a lot. Don't feel too bad about not getting over to this side of the pond for a meet. I have yet to get to one here as well. In fact, up close and in the flesh I have only met UK members, (Goughy Boy in Gillingham and R111 near Uttoxeter). Enjoy your motor when you get it on the road

Really nice looking FTO - good stance - nice rims - engine bay is savage - though you've gone a litle heavy on the graphics -Hope your new paint job will sort this.

Thanks guys, yeah when i got it it took me about 18hrs in total toclean engine bay as was covered in muck oil as most FTO's are, used alchol and de-greaser once done its pretty easy to keep it that way, the occational wipe is all thats needed, you never know once im sorted i might organise a little convoy over there be a good day out get a few other members from uk to come over have a mega meet :idea: :lol:


as for the graphics yes they are coming off, i did it mor a freind of mine who opened up a graphic design shop doing vinyl graphics and customer designs , used my car for promos and stuff and flyers, if any of ou guys need anything let me know i could hook you up and get you a good discount :lol:

On the one hand - welcome to the forum, the more the merrier !!

On the other - I thought we had finally managed to cleanse fto-ireland of all of those feckin' signatures with images. Seems to be a UK thing ?

Oh to be able to read the discussions without having to look at the same set of pictures 10 times in a single thread.

No pressure :wink:

There is no accounting for individual taste and the danger is that we presume 'our' taste is the only one. It's your motor sp8ced22 and you 'dress' it the way you want and fair play. I personally enjoy the graphics, even though I do not have it on either of mine. Happy motoring
