You saying that I had to go & check I was right, they’re 15’s - a trick of the camera/light the tyres don’t look as fat as 15’s.
The 12 spokes are back on now.

The size needs to be 640/480 and these seem well within that limit. The 'rules' are at the end of the post in How to do Things entitled 'Pictures in Posts'.
It is not wise to offend 'Snoopy' !!.

24v innit......If ya go too fast the flux capacitor kicks in and the air pressure redesigns them.

Dan,
The Autosol has done a nice job.
It has a passing resemblance to a Mondeo's grille.
I wouldn't park it near sand though, the cats will try to bury it

 Ok guys you will make me cry  Yeah thanks Adam i am happy with how the autosol has worked. As for the front we are going to get a new grill dont like the one on it me and matt were looking at it and we dont think it is from a mondeo just based on the shape. It has mg zr/rover 45 lights WORK DONE BY BODYWORK COMPANY IN WALES. PREVIOUS OWNER NOT US!! He didnt like the front so he changed it. We just brought it because we havnt owned a 24v yet and this one was going cheap with 12months MOT and half the miles of our last one. It doesnt look too bad looks more modern (although today that might not be a good thing). Oh and adam was the 1 i knew about who didnt like it Hoping to attend some shows soon so hopefully see some of you there.

i dont think the grill is off anything, looks like heavey duty plastic coated mesh, with some chrome detailing, theres no 'backing' to it so doubt it been robbed off another car.
You really need to see the car in the flesh, its like the standard car, looks really good in most angles but some its a bit awkard
Personally i like it but it doesnt matter what we think, so long as Dan and family are happy with it thats all that matters

You asked for opinions...here's mine. Ahem.
I don't think there's anything wrong with the standard frog eye cheshire cat grin of the Scorp, so for that reason I'm out.
Bloody good effort nevertheless, and I lurve that inlet manifold. Autosol you say? Applied with what...brush, cloth, wire wool..
More info please. Going to have a go at posting a picture but my patience is thin if it's not simply a drag and drop, so don't hold your breath. When we get computers in the future all this will be soooo easy.http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/YaBBImages/angry.gif
And I've got an iMac, that's supposed to be even easierer. We'll see.http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/YaBBImages/huh.gif
