car is undergoing surgery . will upload more info soon enough.

engine is smooth and gearbox it's perfect . i really didnt want to invest more in the GR so went to get a GPX . all i can say it's that the car is all that i expected.


oh and i bought it a few months ago :smt033

not enough space on the parking lot for all the cars and van .

for now the mivec will get all the attention , and the GR has to go .
She's happy to drive this B. :lol:

This is a very nice car, especially with the mods already carried over from the red one, progress on this one will be interesting.

Had a look at this one some time back before you purchased. Apart from the high mileage and a few minors probs i was in good running order. You will need to see after the small rust spots on the roof asap before they get too far.

Like Tom I thought you were getting rid of the FTO permanently. Nice upgrade and black is best ;)

Fair play Seb. While several owners on here have had 2 FTOs at the same time - I can't remember that anyone in Ireland has ever owned 3 FTOs (Steelroe excepted of course, as he seems to have about 15 in one form or another)
