Project Blue Smartie... Charged

Featured Replies

It's hilarious! Unusual Polos do seem to get noticed though. Back when mine was on a main road outside my parents' house I had two notes left, then some guy stopped in the middle of the road and got out to ask me how much I wanted for it and another one stopped me while I was getting out to ask the same.

I like my car, and the colour's nice, but I never did understand being treated like I was driving a rare Ferrari. Always made me smile though. :)

AND DONE!

Its 6months since I've driven my other G40 but this thing feels like an absolute animal in comparison and the black one is not far off this spec-wise! Seriously impressed when I put my foot down... G SMILES are Back!!!

Tracking is high on the agenda though!...

I'm really impressed with the difference in handling with G40 steering arms and damper, polybushed arb and new top mounts and wheel bearings!

Just make sure you look after it man, no more cold start thrashing or redlining. let the poor thing warm up first. no wonder your black one was in such a mess!

Looks overly dope in the smarties bay though!!! i want!

woop woop!

wish i stayed now :(

Dare you to pour a pack of smarties in the charger :ninja:

I can happily report that the G40 Rad and twin speed fan now mean it is back to sensible temperatures in rush hour traffic! Was having to drive with the heaters on full whack due to a crap rad a knackered fan!

from a distant view it loomks as though things are finally working out for you car wise.

2 Requests,

Please get the black G looking OEM sweet.

Lets get to some shows this year!
