Well folks i decided it's about time i documented a little thread to the ST205WRC's progress from pictures from myself and the previous owner Paul Bartolo.
Well here is how how it started out when it came in from Japan. Silver was the standard original colour ![]() And the plain but tacky imo modified interior ![]() Firstly it was the first ST205 (or so i was told) to be running a front mount in the UK and Ireland ![]() Then car got painted Lotus Exige S Chrome Orange and sporting its first set of wheels ![]() The car has had many engine modifiactions done over a long period of time, some have changed as you will see in the next few pics over the course of the build ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is a few quick pics of the last and most recent build ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() To the most recent but certainly not the last change ![]() The most recent interior but changes will also be done there too, changes that will happen are new reclining bucket seats and flocking of the dash. ![]() The car has had a magazine feature or two over the years and I have been approached to do another in the near future with the girlfriends orange Ford Puma ![]() Few pics of events the car has attended some pics showing the car sporting it's most recent set of wheels 18" Works Emotion CR Kai ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Recently the car was taken to it's first outing after the last build and it done me very proud, picking up best performance car and best car overall at the North West Motorshow 2009 to add to the trohies the car has already won over the years. These are the trophies the car won at it's most prestigeous event back in 2005 Banzai Best Engine Modifications and Best car of show 2005 ![]() And most recently 7 June 2009, myself collecting the trophy for best high performance car and cash reward for best car overall

envious of whats under your hood, awesome work. that orange really stands out from the rest of the gt-fours, it definitely drew attention away from the lack of bodykit. nice
