My 2.0 Plaza

[Murph]

Hope this works!

Very much a work in progress.  Needs a respray tho.   

[Murph]

That's why they're there! 
just gotta get them wired in now lol 

[Murph]

Like I said UD - GM in their infinate  wisdom decided to install a cut-down loom on this model, so no wiring for hi-beams, fog lights, trip computer or windows behind dash or fuse-box.

Oddly enough tho - its all there behind the front bumper! 

[Murph]

Did all that on my old gls     

[Murph]

If I could afford it I get one on the morrow 

Those ever-elusive lotto numbers would be real handy about now! lol

[Murph]

Might get that loyus I've been eying up - might even have enough left over to maintain it PMSL

Or maybe just get a skyline. Sod the Lambo! 

[Murph]

WTF is a Loyus?

Senile at 31? surely not!

Will admit to spending many a year lusting after a diablo tho. 

[Murph]

No hope at all

And tose pics are worth about athousand quid.

Each!

[Pedro]

Hmmmm?? Win £3,000,000 plus and only spend £40k-ish on a car??

A bloody re-badged Holden at that too.............

I'm shocked!

So you're not a fan then, Sean?

[Murph]

Worth modding tho surely?   

[Murph]

Good point! Well made! 

[ian]

atill have my carlton tho,
but all three of them probley would be totally rebuilt and id still drive my red one because..........
oh yeh could you imgaian the tv ,million winning driving a 1.8l!!!!
make me laugh any how

[corky13]

that looks like a very nice car mate

[Murph]

Thanx Corky 

Unfortunately it's not so good in the metal tho. 

Still the arches and chassis rails are solid so I count my blessings.

It photographs well too! 

[Murph]

Unfortunately this is very true for my poor plaza 

[corky13]

remember beauty is in the eyes of the beholder or summat like that

[carlton_mad]

Worth modding tho surely?   

If you won the lottery and had at least £3,000,000 to play with would you honestly waste your time playing with a Vauxhall Monaro??

I wouldnt........I'll have a 200mph Supercar please!

but dude the monaro does 162 book speed so by the time you supercharge it adn have a laughing gas install itll do all that and it can make bmw and merc owner/drivers look fookin silly besides
and to be honest id also go find my old cdx and have her rebuilt and install a hs1 in that too tune that to 550-600 bhp sweet i think!!!!!

[Murph]

Yeah must 'ave a drive down to margate some time innit?

Daaaaaaaahn 't' maaargitt!

[carltonman]

Just found this thread, if I wone that money, the 2 GSI's woud be re-built using all parts currently fitted, keeping them standard.
Fun cars for the garage, full glass tail Buick Rivierea (1971), '64' Chevy Impala & '68' Chevy Nova.
Daily driver, either early '70's'Purple Austin Marina (Mustard yellow if must), bust must be TC version.

Can understand if get asked to leave site

I thought it was more the Allegro my self. At least in a Marina you will get noticed (for all the wrong reasons!)

[Pedro]

If I ever won alot of money, first thing I'd do is book a one way ticket outta this poxy country!**

Would take the Carlton and the family, but that's all. Would deffo buy a Monaro, but where I'd go, it would be a Pontiac GTO (then I'd rebadge it as a Vauxhall or Holden to make it different to all the local Ponchos!). Supercars? Nah, do nowt for me really! Probably have a helicopter............

Nice Plaza!!!!



**I really think Britain (Great? Don't make me laff!) is going downhill fast - and has done for years - and be honest, can you see it getting any better sometime soon?

Thought not!
