Congratulations that's one sweet ride..

Beautiful car Ben I bet you are well happy with her. Have you took her for a spin (on a private road of course.... ) just interested to know how she handles.

Looks fab and the bodywork looks super.

Word of warning, the rear foglamp will probably fail IVA as it has no "F" mark on it.

Goes like a rocket... but not tested handling as the suspension needs setting up
