looked all over for a copy of ppc and finally found one.. Absolutely amazing car daz! Write up shows it well. I Would have thought the laptop hooked up to the emerald would also be a key point in this, didnt get a mention though?? Good effort.

I'm not one for the back slapping that goes on on so many sites everytime someone does anything to their cars, but credit were credit's due - I am in awe of your car, the amount of though and effort that has gone into that is incredible. You may single handedly put the Metro on the performance car map.

They were a bargain as they were the MGF Trophy rims 16", not ZR as that rim is only on the MGF Trophy 160. If they were 17" then they would be the Milla Miglia 17" versions for MGF/TF that were available via Mike Satur several years back.
