Looking really good, the red works so well against the black....
What about the red JDM sir seats for the back to finish off the redness..??

Great looking car and def one of my fav Ludes on here...

Duckfish, these seats have reclining lever on both sides of the seats. :D :D

Wurly, just waiting for some new tyres before I actually put them on the car and drive. :lol: ;) Sam is after the front seat only and if I were to sell it would be a both together. ;) Spydor (Iain) has the dibs, IF I decide to sell. :geek:

Rudelude, no I'm not fan off the red rear seats no more. :lol: I like my half leather half suede back seats for now. Plus the no one is allowed to sit in the back anymore.. :bat:

Car has passed the MOT today (mileage = ~169,000km) thanks to @honda-hardy

Advisories were - Wipers and surface corrosion.

Wiper - It's only been like 1 month since I got the wipers from Halfords after re-spraying the rusty wiper blades. :o Never buying wipers from there again. :evil:

Rust/Corrosion - that will be sorted soon as I have been quoted around £800 to do both my arches and repaint.. :)

Also, other things like emissions were high as I think my OEM (18 year old) Catalytic convertor has had it. :lol: Lot of white smoke which is probably valve stems.. :evil:

Those seats look wicked mate, I was hoping to drop some of the ukdm premier edition black and red recaros in my lude. I'm definitely going to now as yours look sweet.

:? Valve stem seals give blue smoke, not white? White is normally weak mixture? :?

Cheap wipers are a complete waste of time. Even Bosch ones aren't as good as they used to be (but still way, way better than pretty much all others)


EDIT: actually, that smoke analysis I've given is on pre-cat cars now I think of it, so possibly I'm talking bollocks there - I don't know what effects cats have (if any) on changing the colours of different types of smoke...
