    i went to repair a forklift at a scrap metel place and found he had a fair few cars there. so having a look around i found a few lagunas. as the mk2 lags headlight look a million times better then the mk1 i found a realy tidy pair.

    from this..

    exactly what i wanted to do to mine! similar wheels as i had too and probably the same drop on cut springs

    i'd have another in a shot 3.0v6 manual or a 2.0ltr turbo with the volvo bottom end

    oh found some pics, excuse the neons but f&f and being 20 influenced me!

    cheers for the comments.the car has looked like it has for about 8 years now. so it was suppost to go along with the touring cars of the time.

    its having the alloys refurbed soon 12 months mot may be some spacers to make it look a bit better then it does.

    and then its getting sold as its a realy good car any way but i can't get 3 kids in the back, so coming soon is a BMW E39 540i 4.4 of V8 greatness

    its the 2.0 16v sport model, so comes with the 140bhp Volvo engine close ratio box and the sports trim.

    shed load of service history with it, will be looking proberly around £900 for it.

    well after some time this car is looking that little bit cleaner.

    jobs done so far
    all black plastic trim now colour coded.
    rear quarters painted
    spacers on front fitted
    new engine fitted
    new suspention all round fitted
    new brakes all round
    tinted all rear windows
    extra deep front splitter fitted
    phase 2 headlights fitted
    new front fog lights fitted

    Gold williams decals fitted

    i have 20mm spacers just need to get the bolts for them, then thinking 18" focus rs wheels to finish off the outside. front and rear arches will req a roll and a slight pull.

    anyway more pics

    Nice work on that mate,i was well into my Renaults around the time this car was new! looks good

    You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

    And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!
