This last wednesday (13th July 2005) I went up to Kingswinford (North Midlands in the UK) and picked up my new car! Only difference is, unlike my current car, I have to build this one myself!
Now I know you guys ask for proof of ownership, but since its in pieces, and I only have modules 1+2 (out of 6) its a bit hard. So I have just taken these 3 photo's now, with the items laid on my laptop with JW on the screen in my best efforts to prove I am telling the truth.
If I think there is interest here, I will keep this post updated with the latest build pictures and information (like an online diary
), and once its finished, anyone who is around is more than welcome for a ride, as its an excuse for me to drive it some more
8) . I am predicting it will take me 6 months to make, hopefully less, but i'm allowing up to 9 incase of problems etc
Although my kit is only the SEiW 1800i, it still gets 0-60 in 5.2 seconds, and sounds raw as hell 8), i know that because i got a ride in an identical engined car the night before (but no photo proof of that, sorry!).
If there are any questions about it, then please ask and I will try and answer, meanwhile, here are the pictures!
The build manual, big heavy, and it has more than Module 1 in it, its got all the modules, just the front cover says 1.
next up is the letter of confirmation I was sent, i've blanked my name and address for obvious reasons
and my final proof I can offer tonight is the checklist for module 1 I received to show I have all the parts in the kit, i know its not really proof, but how else would i get it?
I can show other forms of proof next time i go to the car which is temporarily stored in my aunts garage an hour away until my build workshop is ready to use!
And here are some quick pictures I took on the day.
Westfield Sportscars Ltd, and an XTR4 factory car:
This is the kit in the garage as i left it last night
I chose the V8 bonnet for the car, and a black nose cone (it will look good when finished
)
and I also chose the CF effect kit, which all came in a box, i'll get pictures of the rest later, but here are the front wings stacked one on top of the other
and here are some other pics I took;
The drive shafts
AP Racing front brake upgrade pack (obviously there's 2 of them
)
some of those pics were taken on the back ramp or in the back of the van still, and here is a pic of the van... why not eh?
(next to my aunts saxo)
and a nice way to annoy traffic behind you, get a slow van :roll:
the smarter members may notice the photo is from the passenger seat, thats because my dad was driving the van because i'm too young to rent a van myself, and i've only held my licence for a couple of months
I think thats about it, I have some pictures I took from the journey, look out for them in the 'WYST' forum.
I'll update when I reach a notable stage in building, which hopefully will be late next week as long as I can get my build space sorted
and like I said, please feel free to ask questions, I know I have the kit, and I will do my best to prove it if there are any doubts.
