24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 7, 2005 Cheers guys. I will be getting the car about to shows as much as I can. I had a long chat with the Dutch lads that were at ED38 (Big Ron, Cheil etc..) and they were really nice guys and well into the car. Was nice to get compliments from people who have such amazing cars. The fact that PVW picked it as their car of the show made my day though! :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted September 7, 2005 nice one jay. I spotted you rolling into the show early doors, the wheels stood out a mile! still not sure if I like them or not, but they are certainly striking, and very different to anything else I've ever seen. The engine install was top notch and looked factory (and being bling free made it look better), and the interior looks great too, a lot neater since I last saw it. a credit to your hard work and ingunuity.

24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 7, 2005 Cheers Paul. You of all people know how much is involved in getting that engine in there and I wanted it to be factory not all chrome and polish. I couldn't do 40 miles a day to work otherwise! :) Cheers Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RS VR6 0 Posted September 8, 2005 Awesome car man! Is the car getting shot by a magazine? PVW needs to re-shoot the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 8, 2005 RS VR6 - Yes it is getting another feature. Elliot spoke to me at ED38 and said they want to do a stuido photo shoot this time and hopefully it will be a cover car too! woohooo!! :) :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlett 0 Posted September 8, 2005 this was the highlight of E38 for me... awesome car Jay!!!! ....and great choice of wheels!!! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 8, 2005 Cheers Scarlett. Glad people liked it. Wheels took a lot of time to sort out and get on, but by the reaction they got it was worth the effort! :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 8, 2005 Well G60 Renshaw was a bit out of date as I don't think there is anything left from the G60 anymore..... :) So 24v Renshaw it is. Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 8, 2005 Bloody typical isn't it!! You drive a car virtually every day for 4 years, just get it finished to a stage you are happy then.......look what happened!!! :mad: Went for an interview for a job in Manchester and bumped into the back of a taxi which decided it was going to just stop all of a sudden. Luckily it was no more than walking pace, but its actually damaged almost every panel that I have just fitted!! New Bonnet, New bumper, New front panel, new headlight and new grille. Still every cloud has a silver lining and I am just getting it all done on the insurance and getting a fresh re-spray on the front end and brand new VW bonnet, front panel, bumper and reiger grille :) So no stone chips for the feature when its done. Hey ho! :) Still I have a couple of ideas I would like to do if I can while its being done, so it will come back stronger very soon! Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 8, 2005 Bloody hell!!! Well sorry its having to come out of your insurance.. thats a big crapper :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 8, 2005 To be honest I am not that bothered. Yeah its annoying, but its such superficial damage I am just happy it was not more severe.... Like I say a brand new front end for £300 is not bad. :) I guess its just the risk I run using it everyday. Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben16v 0 Posted September 8, 2005 gutted jay as you say every cloud.... at least it didnt happen before ed38 hope it all goes to plan ben Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RadoAds 0 Posted September 8, 2005 ahhhhhhhhhhhh, gutted for ya mate, aslong as your happy with the outcome though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted September 8, 2005 Ben16v - if it had happened before ED38 then I would have been seriously pi55ed off. RadoAds - The good thing is my mate (who painted the car 4 years ago with me) works at the best bodyshop in the area and it will be done there, so the results will be nothing but perfect. He is going to make sure of it! :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
