well it started life with me in april april 08 as an irish import and the first mod to get done was the generic map and looked like this:
in the first 6months i had some major problems with her
firstly the input shaft bearing went so went into peugeot under warrenty to be repaired at a cost of £600 while it was in i got them to fit the spoiler
within another 3 months the car was missing on 2 cylinders, so they decided to rebuild engine, new piston rings, cylinders honed, injectors refurbd etc to the cost of £1600
i then decided to change the colour of the wheels to this as well as puting my private plate on:
i then took a day road trip with my dad to near stonehenge which was a fair few hours drive either way from my house to collect a mint gti half lether interior with the looped headrests and when we got home i cracked on with swapping it all over into my car
i then in december 08 had an argument with a roundabout in which i damaged an alloy and bent a trackrod end,and wishbone,rear stub axle and bent the rear arch out a tad
after some messing about with a preplex gti axle, and new parts to rebuild my original axle,and a gargae of which io got a bill of £360 off which didnt get paid because he gave my gti axle which had new discs pads and was in mint con to the scrap man and sorcing some vortex gti180 alloys off dave206 i believe off here the car was back on the road and looked like this
i then took a trip to tint centres in wolverhampton and for a cheap £99 had all my windows tinted, i dont have any pictures of this though
i then refurbed my alloys in gloss black to bring it to look like this
and then i though id turn sensable (to which i now regret)
and changed the shocks and springs for some off a gti180 which means the car got highered i likes it for all of 5mins and then missed the lowness
i then decided the sp aches id bought needed painting and fitting so off my bump strips and bumper mouldings came and went with the aches to be sprayed looks alot better in my opinion
then not much changed until just before info went down and i suddenly got the modding bug again
i argeed to purchase a very cheap set of sirroccos from lisa206 i beleive is was for £50 plus postage as she was moving and needed them gone
2 weeks later no alloys so i got my moneys back via paypal
i also fitted the sp bits and bobs (handles,handbrake)
then got the idea off info for the boost gague and got myself a custom 206 boost gauge holder off ebay,
so i set about fitting the com2000unit, ppt40 dispaly and 180 steering wheel
i then fitted the boost gauge and holder and fix the headunit to go off with the ignition thanks to the guide that was on here heres some pics
went to topgear performance at doncaster and was lowered (again) and while it was in got a free decat
interior mod's
180 carbon fibre bits
carbon fibre effect boost gauge in custom holder
jvc headunit with ipod and steering stalk adaptors

180 carbon centre console and door handle surrounds fitted,awaiting other carbon parts before pics taken
ordered a bit of tinting film to do headlights and fogs like ross's old gt, saw them and though it looked smart

Don't mean to hijack, but here's my smoked headlights effort...
The car is Photoshopped but the headlights are real. They're standard crystals covered in dark smoke tint film from lamin-x.co.uk.
the car is booked in to get the front lowered again by 60mm and the torsion bars ajusting, so i though while it was in and on ramps decat time so im carless next friday for a few hours pics will be up once done Last edited by burga_hdi on Wed Feb 24, 2010 5:40 pm; edited 2 times in total

i managed to get it on ebay i thinkits been made out of an old vent and some fibreglass but its been done to a good standard good find me thinks
and the car was lowered by 60mm on front not sure on back as it was done when i bought it, but i miss the lowness and how it looked
#14: Re: Project - Baby Derv - burga_hdi Author: burga_hdi, Location: Goole East yorksPosted: Fri Mar 05, 2010 7:43 am ---- well the car is in the hands of top gear at doncaster, to have some 60mm springs fitted and torsion bars ajusted and a decate pipe made up photos will follow when i have picked it up
#15: Re: Project - Baby Derv - burga_hdi Author: Ape, Location: Clipping the Apex!Posted: Fri Mar 05, 2010 8:06 am ---- I really like this
The gauge holder is a cool idea, although the gauge is hard to read (from the pics!)
