you bet :) i feel like giving her a kiss every time i get in! she has a few minor dents, and the rust isn't bad at all. she was garaged for a few years, the tyres that came with it were flat-spotted, so i put my mags off the red one on, and now the red one's mud flaps are 2 inches off the ground lol, i think the red had super-lows....

I am going to poooooooour $ into this white queen cordia i don't smoke, don't drink , and i obsess over anything to do with turbos.....
Glad you like her, i think she will impress a few soon....Love to do a cruise one day you never see that anymore.... gotta get this steering sorted because it drives me crazy pardon the pun.

i like the sound of that bigtime!! a few oldie heads will turn for sure! i parked my cordia in nandos the other day, the chick behind the counter goes ' is that your white car out there' i'm like uhhh yeah..why's that?? she says ' those are cool you don't see them around anymore'
that made me feel all warm inside! a hot chick that knows of these cordias!!!?? my mrs was in the car waiting, she had a laugh when i got back, i couldn't wipe the smile off my face hehe

my mate asked me if i'm getting a cd-player....i haven't even thought of that....i just like the ssssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhwishhhhhhhhhhhh of the spooling turbo ;) that's all the stereo i need.

White one looks in decent shape, don't know if its just the photos lying but it looks like from the doors
forwards has had a respray at some stage. Good luck with the two Cordias.

I ultimately made the decision to wreck my AA Cordia and concentrate on one.

Thanx mate :) i don't think she's had a respray, she is clean throughout, and all paint has original shine still. rust has found the usual spots, but an easy fix to the right guy......soon to be me....

catchin up with Bitza soon :)

got my 2.5 inch straight through from cat back today :D I didn't want anything extreme or loud or expensive for that matter! so i kept original dump and cat and got 2.5 inch with straight through turbo muffler. Now she's got a nice semi-quiet note that's not going to attract attention unless i floor the throttle, and she's got a nice few subtle pops and rumbles when you down change. I noticed a small increase in throttle response down low and she felt like she cruised better with a nice clean note while you drive placidly. If you slightly back off from cruising she's got that little rumble :lol: Happy now, no leaky muffler, i also rid of the centre resonator.

More to come.....lots more, i'll get some exhaust pics up tomorrow if i can
