Cupras look good in yellow, it is one of the better colours to have them in. Apart from that it looks ok, but HPI it and maybe have a chat with Edeath as he has one and has been doing a lot of work so must have a good idea what to look for on a modified example.

totally worn out and broken, shouting 'Holy ****, WHAT A RIDE!'"

I'd hang onto your Lexus mate. I had one of them it was just standard and it give me nothing but bother. Between electrics and turbo. When it did go it went well in a straight line but all the powers wasted as it's front wheel drive and doesn't steer. The interior rattled and the air con had a funny smell which no one could ever sort. Mine had leather seats in it and they got very worn looking.

My gsi vectra was 10 times the car and the is200 IMO is 100 times the car.

God you wer going fast when I past youConfusedhock:
