WR1 Owners Club

Hello there everyone i picked up wr1 116 on saturday all the way from wales seen on piston heads its mint and fsh just a couple of alloys need refurb im well happy it drives like new its looks standard apart from some deff's were the clock was and some speed camera/jammer stuff that keeps bleeping it has good history with a new clutch/cambelt/brakes fitted 2000 miles ago boost goes up 2 1.5 bar is this standard

Well done 1.4 is standard, the defis can read 0.1 higher which may be why you are seeing 1.5? Enjoy it!!

Nice mate, lets see some pictures!

How come you didn't get the one from up North?

Thanks can anyone help ? teach me how to upload pics cos i have not got a glue lol thanks the one up north was close to 3000 pound more than i paid ok 10000 less miles but i would have had 2 spend about 1000 pound ontop on to get it mint headlight cracked on inner chrome part ? how did that happen ? all the alloys needed refurb stone chips on bumper/bonnet and he never had the cat/downpipe so how would i get mot with no cat on car ? all adds up to £££ anyway im chuffed i own wr1 116

You to mate. As i say i may keep for a bit longer now, had a trip to wales today and made me realise how much i love this car but who knows my mind keeps changing lol.

Well done m8, I'm sure you will enjoy. I had 116 from new and it was mint when I sold it, 23k on the clock and sold it October 2007. I had the defi's and the laser jammer etc. put in, just pleased to see her still on the road.

ok mate I was the same as you now I can't stop uploading pics,

Anyway I got myself a photobucket account, and you can add the photos you want to upload into photobucket, then at the bottom of the screen is a tick box that says something like generate html codes, then a few choices will come up, and you just cut from the photobucket website, and past the codes into your post, click preview to see if it works. then off you go!!!

How many owners ? plus he may have moved to hayle

Sorry for the confusion, but "smug grin" after who owned the car after "iceman", kept it 100 yards from me I could see it from the bedroom window......

The reason he brought it was because his mrs seen ours outside argoose and wanted 1.

was smug grin's name jonathon cos he got it on 31/10/2007 and then he sold it to the bloke i bought it from on 06/06/2008 now its mine

Smug grin's thread was dated 5/11/2007 so I guess his name was Jon

You sure ?

I definitely sold it to a guy near Birmingham and I know he only held onto to it for a few weeks, so it is the same car for sure.
