Re: DTM Turbo
So MOT time today and
EPIC FAIL!
i got 3 pieces of paper back with it which included 15 fails and 4 advisory points so back to work. PVS is now not looking too promising anymore

Re: DTM Turbo
I had forgot how long ago it was since i updated this so some pics i still have of it
wheels getting re furbed





new bbs centre caps

anyone filling a tranfer box this is the easiest way i found


rewelded the big hole in the boot lid behind the yellow flash badge and ended up this

just made pvs this year

fitted a hid kit

also made it to billing for first year but missing pictures
made it to totaal vauxhall live

and then onto the south coast

This weekend i hope to see the engine out of it and onto a stand to start rebuilding for the new season
