This car looks awesome, i see Mo every now and again in the Rosebank area on his way home from work.

I remember at the Swartkops Charity event, sitting in the passenger side of the LHD Touring you had, felt odd being on the passenger seat where in normal cases its the drivers seat.

I have never driven a LHD car, is it a different experience? Does it take some getting used to? Or do you adapt simply?

Would love to drive one sometime to feel the different point of view.

So after owning my car for 4 years now and not doing much i have decided to make some small changes.

Rolling of all four fenders busy getting done.This will allow my car to finally go abit lower.
Brand new Hella fogs to be fitted.
Rims going in for a full refurb.I want to create two different looks so the aim is to keep the stars the standard colour but also spray the actual wheel another colour.What do you guys suggest?
A good buddy managed to find me a brand new louvre and this will be fitted aswell.

Long term goal is making the car manual and a powerful engine swap.

Waiting for the new Hella Fog lamps to arrive.
