Hi guys! Turned 18 in July and bought my first coupe in August. Made a mistake, long story, but I'm going to stick with it! :D It's a Red Gen 3, with Gen 3.5 Front and rear bumpers. Only mod I've done really is tatlocked the lights and put my sound system in.

Re: Hi guys
The coupe itself isn't a mistake. It's the particular coupe I chose lol. It's got bodge jobs everywhere, the wire between the alternator and the battery snapped off while driving it home (WHILE I WAS FASTING lol), erm, the front/rear bumpers and the offside wheel arch is a different shade of red.. erm, the door cards dont seem fit in flush, so squeak against the dashboard while driving.. uhm, what else? Missing centre caps, central locking doesn't work, so I have to unlock with the key (first the passenger side and then the drivers)faz wrote:hi and welcome to the HCOC club
whats the mistake you made getting the coupe? we might be able to help
So yeah, great car :P BUT when I'm behind the wheel, cruising along, on the M11, I love it I have a few little plans for it, nothing major. As I am still a student, first year in uni this year! :D
Thanks for the welcome guys
