Hi all. My name is Chris, i am 21 and im from Preston, Lancs. Just a bit of info about me and my car history.
Shortly after passing my test i was having to drive mother and fathers cars around for a bit. Wasn't too bad tho getting to drive a 2.0 tdci mondeo at 17/18 but i looked rather strange in a Streetka
I also drive a new Ford Mondeo 2.0TDCI Titanium X now
Anyways i decided enough was enough and bough my first car. It was a Peugeot 106 Look 2 and it was, well looking like this
I had this car for 18 months and it went all over the place. it however only went to one event and that was Trax 07. it was on the stand for my local car club and it got a few heads turning. However it wasn't the prettiest car in the club but i loved it and thats what mattered. anyways i eventually departed with it on Oct 2nd and i was very upset. i wanted to keep but i didn't have enough space to do so but anyways after i had my fun and my first modding experience, this was the result.

After ages of searching for a new car to replace the pug (i still had her at this point) i was on the verge of buying a celica gen 7 GT but then saw a mondeo ST TDCI. i was still unsure and then wanted a abrath punto. after being told it wasn't coming on sale in the uk i was stuck in two minds. i love this motor, stylish, cute, nice and nimble and not expensive and a head turner. So i splashed out and got it
So here is the motor called Sophie, The Suzuki Swift Sport.
1.6 16v VVT engine
0-60 8.7 Sec
Top Speed 130
MPG 39.2 Combined
Now mine isn't totally standard as i splashed out loads on extras, so ill list the extras Ive had fitted.
Leather Seats
Front Spoiler
Rear Spoiler
Side Skirts
Audio 2 Package (Upgraded Speakers + Sub)
Autoglym Paint Protector
Alternative Gearknob
Sport Matts
So for some pictures of her
The lastest pictures of the car are these
Futher mods include
Painted centre caps
Painted engine cover lettering
Back three windows tinted
Flat blade wipers
Painted calipers
I am considering the 5 spoke wheels from the IS200 and the brakes and calipers too. I have also been a fan of these motors
Thanks for looking and i might even turn up for a north west meet :)
