Keep us updated.
My 110 is hugely versatile, I've had all sorts of things in the back. |

Ok, so since owning this, I've done a collasal 2k miles in it..... I've had it stuck in a field because the tyres are shocking and its had some shiney new paint!
I fitted the urban truck best of British grille set /vents within an hour of picking it up and I had big plans, then work got mega busy and that was the end of any free time I had. Then over the past few weeks as work has reduced and I've actually had time off, I started buying things, in order to fit them this weekend just gone. I bought a new a bar, some svx side steps a double din fascia, an alpine 920r and an urban truck double drl front bumper. So where's the update I hear you say?! Well on Wednesday I came down with appendicitis and Saturday I had it out. Now I'm not allowed to lift anything heavy for at least two weeks and to be honest I can barely move still so there's no chance. But I do get to look at all the bits I've bought, its literally torture! The roof was supposed to be painted black but the body shop forgot to do it, so it has to go back again early next month. I'm also currently looking for a set of 18's as I think the 16" look far too small on a slab sided utility. |

Please do post some current photos when you can. I guess you went for the grey/black colour scheme rather than the grey/darker grey you mentioned initially? I was going to be interested in seeing the latter but sounds like i won't
Get well soon! |

The grills are black, but the jury is still out on that, I'm still tempted to go for anthracite, if I was any good at Photoshop I'd have tried it on there first!

I must admit the grey/black colour scheme isn't to my personal taste. I'm looking for anthracite wheels so have been considering anthracite grille and light surrounds, possibly steering guard. Unfortunately my photoshop skills aren't up to it!! Has anyone got this scheme or able to photoshop?

You've got to have a black roof and wheels for it to work, I was just impatient. But as I say, I still may go for the anthracite grilles but either way the roof is going black

It never even registered , untill today when I was deleting things out my ebay including steps I'd been watching and noticed the tread. I don't know if they are svx or x-tech? Not sure what the difference is. Either way, just happy to rid myself of the fold down steps

Finally, it was a long wait, but we'll worth it...
Click image to enlarge Just need new bumper caps as mine were in fact ruined and the original bumper was not only bent. But very, very rusty! Still looking for 18's I think I've pretty much given in to the fact I'm going to splash out on some twisted wheels. Nothing else cuts it! Now onto all the electrical stuff.... Sat nav, Check temp and ultragauge which I plan starting today now I have all the bits. Click image to enlarge |
