Nice
Looks like you've well and truly got sucked into keeping up with Jones Modding !!
Only joking the car looks great.
question .....why do you have a lotus gearstick attached to a GM lump ???
It's a Vx not a lotus
you don't have to try and make people think it is.(or your self)
yes it was put together by the same halfwitts that build the lotus
but the badge on the wheels,engine,rear clam etc etc tells you what it is!
Love the tax disc holder I want one !!!!
where did you get it ?
I owned a silver na for over a year and loved every mile of it
and never even looked at this site.
I got the second one off a member on here and ended up spending quite alot of time on here
reading what others had and wanting the same
I've now spent loads on the car.
I've just started reading the threads on here again due to the fact that I need a bit of Tech help
Now I'm thinking about getting it all supercharged up !!!!!!!!!
Thing is I'm not that great a driver !
and on the track days I have done I've had a really good time and scarred myself to death
so why I'd want to go even faster baffles me 
.
Like I said your car looks great and you must love it
little tip : save up for your next mod then spend it on a bit of track training
your get alot more fun out of the car
even more than some nice new carpet 
and another thing
carbon fiber is ment to be lighter than standard
if you've wrapped your oem parts in some kind of sticky tape
you must only have made it weigh more 
I do the things I like personally, I don't tend to follow others. I can't help if great minds think alike and somethings are popular for a reason.
Liked the style of the lotus knob, to me the car is essentially still 60/40 Lotus you can't claim years of chassis development as your own just by giving the car a new frock. It's not badge snobbery at all if nice VXL branded bits are out there I would willingly fit those, hence the engine badge.
Tax disc SURROUND not holder is from ebay seller look_ma_no_brakes.
I have a private rally 'stage' at my disposaal for 'driver development' have owned and driven my own MkII escort rally car since the age of 14 and have done numerous track days, so should be fairly capapble on that front. Am hoping to attend a walshly day in the VX soon.
re the CF, I know some see it as being a bit wannabe. I simply like the look of it and its a quick and fairly cost effective means to customising and protecting parts. On the parts in question the benifits of the real deal would be almost as neglible as the few grams of weight I have added.
Defo get your charger, It was my plan at first as the more linear track friendly acceleration appealed but I liked the extras of the turbo and the quicker out of the box performance so when a nice example camme along at a very convenient time I snapped it up with the view of upping the power at a later date.
Can't really see that it would of worked anyway as you would need to remove one of the washer rods to route the tube through.
