just been looking on my computer and come across some of my old cars ive had and a couple of shots of my little detailing van. most of these you may never of seen before as there all uk models but hope you enjoy. its a 2000 model ford fiesta TD and beleive it or not its nippy as hell and i can work out of it fantastically. this was a 1990 ford escort 1.8 diesel van that i never finished, had escort cosworth front and rear bumpers, rs2000 skirts, 17" tsw wheels, m3 mirrors, bucket seats etc. would of been a great detaling van sadly had to go. this was a 2000 citreon saxo vtr, it was a pack of dynamite, handled like a go kart and boy was it nippy. this was a 1994 ford fiesta rs1800, other than the suspension being dropped and the front/rear lights it was totally standard and loads of fun. this was a 2001 ford mondeo st24 2.5 v6, luxury for me, unfortunately i lost loads of finished pics on my old laptop so got these off the website which i got the wheels sorted with. i adoured this car it was a 1996 ford escort rs2000 4x4 ( 127 on the road in total ) i spent so much money on getting everything perfect down to buying all new suspension arm components and brake calipers as they looked old, i wanted it to look factory fresh with a twist and think i did well in the end. thanks for looking.:thumb:

The Ford "Sorted" work van is frikkin awesome...We do not have those in the States:shakehead: Does it have room for a Water Tank?:chips:
i never used it for anything other than delivering to all the main dealers i had contracts with. i used to take all the products to my staff at each site once a week thats all i used it for but i have used a newer model thats the same bar the interior and front end are different and had a 250ltr water tank, generator, PW, wet & dry vac and all my kit and it wasnt crammed full. worked fine for me. all your vehicles look great guys.

I'll play! Don't mind whoring out my old cars.. First car ever bought at 16 (on my own) 2000 Honda S2000: Went through 3 different body styles and other mods but basically had updated AP2 Front/Rear, Brembo Rotors/Endless Pads, Espelir springs, espelir exhaust, spoon intake, Kicker L7 10", Pioneer Deck, VAFC, STB, and some other stuff: Then it ended up like this: Then I got an 01 IS300. Had everything, and then some. Full sound system, defi gauges, volk rims, Tein Flex coild, TurboEast Turbo Kit (300whp on 8psi), Defi Guages, Carbon hood, Toms chassis braces all around, toms sway bars. Car was a blast.. but had too many issues so I sold it. Now on to the new love (maybe for sale--again): 08 S2000 with Js Intake Duct, Gutted box, alpine deck, custom paint sl65-style AP2v2's, R8 Style LEDs in the headlights, and I think that's it so far Only recent pic (super over done HDR)
greatness. i'm loving the last pic. with a different background this could definitely go into a brochure. 2000 Honda Accord V6 2009 Subaru Legacy GT
My first and only ride, 2002 Lincoln LS V8. Got it on the 5th of May, this year, paid for it with the money I had saved up from detailing for the last 3 and a half years. Fully detailed the interior, engine, and ZAIO'd and Z2PRO'd the paint a few weeks after I took those pics, so it looks even better now. Lived in the Northeast all it's life but never driven in winter so it still looks great for a seven year old car. I'm hoping to keep it that way and earn some more money to pay to have it stored this winter and to get a late 90's Maxima or Integra to beat on in the winter.
My first real car worth mentioning is my 95 Integra GSR After a few years I changes the look. Then I got rid of the Integra and had a few other daily drivers, but just recently ( like a montth and a half ago), I bought an 06 MAZDASPEED 6. I love this car, it's the best car I have ever owned.
