699MAN 0 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Hi. I have just registered so i thought id post a pic of my car.Its a 97 VR6, Bought when 18 months old by my dad, I then bought it off him. Its only covered 50k miles and is in very good condition.I have had to start using it everyday now since i bought a concours S1 Escort RS Turbo and need 1 car i can actually use!.It needs a bit of paintwork as there was a tiny bubble that appeared and the supposed good bodyshop have made it worse now, That plus a couple of dings from w@nkers whilst its been left in carparks.I want more power so in the next few months i am going to look into the options, I also want aa better interior, Possibly leather or i may retrim a set of Escort RS Turbo Recaros as there possibly the comfiest seat i have ever sat in!!.I also need to get a new air filter, Theres a ram air foam filter on at the moment so does anyone know where you can buy one from?, i have had a look at ram airs website and its said down for maintenance for weeks!.Anyway Hi all and heres my car.Cheers Link to post Share on other sites

nivag27 5 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Hello and welcome. Looks a very tidy car you have there. Link to post Share on other sites
699MAN 0 Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Thanks fellas, Yes its a clean car. Probably helped to the fact its been on the isle of man ( Hence my username!! ) since it was 18 mths old and theres no crime there whatsoever!. Its not perfect as i have had to use it in all weathers but it was used on dry days only and as a 3rd car for 3 years.I wasn't going to look into this yet but whats the best way to get good power from a VR6?, I was initially hoping to go down the turbo or supercharger route but i am worried about the ccost, Any help or thoughts would be great.Cheers Tom Link to post Share on other sites

TheManxmann 0 Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 and theres no crime there whatsoever!. Not exactly true, some begger made off with my stereo in the middle of the day from the back of Athol street! (Manx thing)Nice car though, if you want to have a play with a Supercharged VR6 let me know and I'll ask my mate to take you for a run in his, assuming it's working :-p Link to post Share on other sites
