| Elite Veteran Posts: 624   Location: Sleepy Ol' Suffolk | Hopefully this link will work, Two Metros - Green one is the Rally Tro we take on European Tours such as The Crumball 2012 and this year The Italian Job 2013. - White one is the VVC bought from James160vvc 2 years ago, finally got her stripped, cage in and all the body work sprayed filled and ready for Snetty this summer!   | ||

 Fish freak! MP Admin Posts: 14989    Location: Birmingham | I've edited those links so the pictures show for you. You need to use the link which has [ img ] in for next time  Love the green one, are those Triumph fit wheels or Mini? The white one is a GTa isn't it? | ||

Fish freak! MP Admin Posts: 14989 Location: Birmingham | Damn, that offset is mental  Fair play, I'm guessing that was quite a lot of work. | ||

| Elite Veteran Posts: 624 Location: Sleepy Ol' Suffolk | It was a bit of work but a lot of info was given from a friend of mine Connor, not too sure he is on here. He made me aware of how good the Metro looks on minilites with his Mk3, so i decided to do it to the my mk4. The minilites will be going on the white one for sure as the handling is incredibly fun | ||

| Elite Veteran Posts: 624 Location: Sleepy Ol' Suffolk | metrobruce - 11/3/2013 3:36 AM that offset will badly affect the handling mate . tell me what you think when you have tryed them on your vvc , my guess is you will have insane tourque steer problems . The handling is superb, what are you on about....,However this is on the 1.1 and not vvc so will have to let you know. Its taken me long enough to complete on the green one let alone doing it to the white one. Ill be sure to let everyone know | ||

Its taken me long enough to complete on the green one let alone doing it to the white one. Ill be sure to let everyone know dont get me wrong the car looks sexy with the superlights on, but if you put some mpi alloys on with the same tyres you yould be amased at the difference mate . i ran 5mm spacers on a 1.8 solidcam r100 and it was all over the place . it gives you more tourque steer the further you put the tyre contact patch away from the kingpin pivot because of the increase in leverage | ||

| Elite Veteran Posts: 624 Location: Sleepy Ol' Suffolk | Cheers, it took some taking, the rear has been smoothed and altered also, god forbid if I was to spin off whilst tracking her. I think id cry the amount of hours that has been spent on getting those bumpers flush  | ||

Lotus powered R100 MP Admin Location: Torbay, South Devon, UK | OMG I hadn't noticed the bumper inserts were flushed as well - I only noticed the number plate gap! Awesome work buddy! Can you not make a cast of the bumpers to make a mould from to make replacements? or get some mould done? I'm almost certain you could sell fully smoothed bupers easily! | ||

| Elite Veteran Posts: 624 Location: Sleepy Ol' Suffolk | Your photo gave me the 'omph' to get it moving and also seeing a mates mk3 metro with minilites and the way it handles convinced me to get it going. It turns some heads for sure, just wish it had the vvc lump in it | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 978 Location: Walderslade, Kent | I'm glad she inspired. Connors Metro is an awesome little car for sure, I'm glad to see somebody actually did it rather than the usual stuff that everybody does to Metros. | ||
