Steves Cleenz has a spectacular aura aboutSteves Cleenz has a spectacular aura about
the new beast :D

well here is the new steves cleenz mobile,

a little about the car:

owned by a fellow enthusiast from new who lived local to me, he was going to PX it in against his new car but they offered him peanuts, so he asked me if i knew anybody that would want it, so advertised it on facebook etc and got some people interested in it, then the missus said i really like that!
so cut a long story short i ended buying it for £700

so, the car is a 2005 54 plate, 1 owner from new with service history and loads of receipts, alcantara interior, dual exit cat back powerflow exhaust, janspeed sports cat, K+N apollo air filter (sold this as im keeping my BMC CDA) the tax and MOT ran out at the end of Jan, but took it through a MOT and it flew through

plans are:

give it a right good detailing
heated front seats
wind deflectors
fit my old Xpower springs of the typhoon
sound deaden the rear



so made a start this week on the car:

fitted the wind deflectors





gave the engine a quick clean up



fitted new number plates:



started on the detailing, got one side done then it decided to **** it down:







also got one side of the rear sound deadened:

under the rear seats:



drivers side of the boot and boot lid done, the bootlid is going to have a black carpet fitted over this so you cant see it:






also bought a flip key that i just need to get cut


thats it for now as the weather is stopping me

Update No2

gave the alcantara a shave and a clean:







And started to carbon wrap dash seems i cant get hold of a black oak one

That's a cracking car for £700, a bit of extra soundproofing never goes amiss either.
