Slammed china blue 406 saloon
Awryt everyone, new on here.
So where to start,
23 year old mechanic from fife scotland, owned my 406 for 6 years, bought from my mother who still used the car often when i wasnt so didnt begin modifying until recently, she was the first owner, if i mind right the car cost something juat over 16,000, i bought it for 10 lamber & butler, at only 42,000miles wohoo great deal, unfrotunately the car rolled onto its side in a burn last year after i lwft the road on somewhat slippery leaves! But after some pulling with the landy she was out and drove home no problem, during the incident she managed to collide with a couple of trees, fortunately shes built good..., the only damaged panels were the lower mount for the radiator, straightened out no problem, tiny ding on sill and a ding on the rear quarter too, nothing that cant be fixed, so no worrys there, obviously the front bumper dead, it desintegrated upon impact, anyway on with how she os now
Lots of plans but as it stands so far

HDI 110 intercooler and all pipework slightly changed to fit correctly,

Dump valve with electronic actuator fitted,
Air dozer removed,
Brakes,
Standard other than rear drilled and grooved gold EBC discs,

Re: Slammed china blue 406 saloon
Mainly because its too low to get the jack under, but also because the wheels arent bolted on i dont have the spacers yet, this was a trial to check if theyd fit in the arches
