Muddies and roof rack fitted, exhaust connected back up and fridge wiring loom temporarily in place (will be done permanently once I get a dual battery system). She's all ready for her maiden camping voyage now!
Finally got some new pics too, and took a couple of photos with the silver shorty (which looks ghey with the crappy road tyres.
With the exhaust and muddies the MK feels like a different car. The engine is a lot quieter, but farrrrrrk me I thought it was slow with no exhaust. It feels gutless now, not as much in the top end and feels less torquey, more smoke than I remember too as I found out when accelerating heavily... oops... The muddies are worn quite unevenly from the silver car and as a result I have a pretty strong steering pull and a bit of a shake in the steering at about 80km/h, going to try swapping wheels back to front as the rears seem to have worn a little better, should have really checked that before I bolted them up.
Anyway, pic dump.
I like this pic, the old girl looks tough.
Some poser shots too, my flex is crap.
