Hello everyone. Just a quick introduction

I'm Jim I'm from paisley ( just outside glasgow ) I've got a 1.6 focus mk2 auto reason I got an auto is cos I drive transits at work so I thought a auto wold be relaxing after a days driving lol

The car is still basic tho I've did I few mods new head installed the 12v outlet in the boot. Interior LEDs are next

Mods I wanna do get the centre console did in carbon fibre effect using hydro graphics and my rocker cover gonna get daylights and tint the windows. New alloys and lower it possibly new exhaust system and take the bump strips off to make it look smoother

    If you wanted to give it a facelift, you could replace the front end with the MK2.5, maybe go with the Zetec S or ST front end? although you might need to tart up the rear to make it stand out more for the right reasons
