Hi all,
Current FTO owner from Belfast area.
I own a white 2.0lt GR with a few modifications from the previous owner.
Will be looking for info + advise on upgrades.

I'm actually closer to Ballymena than B'fast.
I got it in Sheffield a couple months ago, but I've seen 2 other white ones up and down the M2 since I got mine.
Mine is in for detailing on Thursday, so I'll get pics up after that when she'll be looking her best
(There's quite a few little stone chips etc that should be gone on Friday.)

We usually have a few jars, so I'll probabley be leaving the car at soupy's. We drive up and leave the car there and pick it up the nxt day. Don't fancy leavin the FTO in portrush overnight. That car attracts the wrong sort of attention
