The Mouthy Blonde
Howdy Dudey!!
I'm the proud owner of a Yellow T5R manual estate aka The Mouthy Blonde. Here are some of the modifications to date: Tuned engine 18T turbo Performance cat and stainless steel exhaust system Race-clutch IPD front & rear anti-roll bars LSD 302mm police spec discs (front) & pads (all round) 18" alloys.....to name but a few! All work carried out by S W Autos last July (04) and I've never looked back. Initially the car performed well but ran out of steam very quickly. Mouthy's performance is now consistently impressive and I've had no complaints whatsoever.
