It will be used on the virgin trackday don't you worry.
Was going to replace the alloys immediately with a set of 17 inch boosts but these wheels are new - toyota alloys have a tendency to bubble - so the car's just had new disks pads, wheels etc, so might aswell keep them for a few weeks.
Best part the girl selling it works for toyota so it's having the full 145 check done prior to us taking it.
Other things - will get a set of TTE lowering springs and drop it to the ground plus looking at the chassis stiffening also.
Fil, I could not have persuaded jo to have anything but an MR2 - I saw a pic of a red MRS with white Advan RG's - that sealed the choice of the next toy.
This does mean sadily that my MKII is leaving the stable, BUT not going far - my sisters boyfriend is buying it cheap off me - on the basis that I get to buy it back in a few years.
