Tony Posted July 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 On reflection i agree but at the time after Lynn died i just wanted rid of the car.... I bought some roof cleaner today £23 so it better be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted July 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 I don't know yet?.....It's a manual gearbox with unusual six speeds... So far I've only managed to get into 5th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Similar engine to the Corolla I had and it's nippy enough but you have to rev it to get it going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted July 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Seems fast enough in fact i don't think i've gone over 5000rpm yet and never been in 6th gear. I'm told it sounds very loud although i never thought that while driving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 How about this one to add to the collection?? http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201705125374243 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted August 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 I mean that car is very nice but at that price it's a looker not a driver, so what's the point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-O Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Wow nice one tony only just saw this thread! As far as replicas go that doesnt look bad at all. I've seen some shockers in my time. From the photos if it were me though i would probably look to space the rear wheels out a smidgeon to sit flush and get the track looking right, but otherwise theres nothing obvious to indicate its underpinnings! Enjoy mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Thanks... I was thinking about rear spacers but the hub already needs to hold the fake discs and calipers.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 I mean that car is very nice but at that price it's a looker not a driver, so what's the point? true, you'd be scared to drive it at a million quid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Very true... I'm fearful now in case someone hits it because the panels would just shatter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 It's bugging me that the seats in the 360 are black and say MR2 on them. I've been looking for the correct white/ cream seats without any joy so i opted for some quite convincing seat covers.... I've ordered these but it's still bugging me that they are covers and will always look like covers, so before they even arrive i've ordered these.. Not exactly right but as close as i can get without spending £1000 per seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 they look pretty decent - where did you order from? will they be difficult to fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 From a company on ebay.. Two new seats £240 the pair.. They come with universal runners that are basically four bolts the same as my car although i do expect to make some modifications. Point to note they are not suitable for airbags or factory fitted seat belts the feed from the oem seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Seats paid for via ebay....What a load of tosh ebay is Also I've ordered a new key Ok it needs to be cut and a new transponder but at least it looks right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Some more bits ordered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted November 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Just ordered.... Seat belt pads.... I think they will look better with the new seats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 You could of bought a real 360 with what you have spent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
