Default Winter Wonderland - By 400 Series

Got any shots of your 400 Series in the snow?

I shall kick this one off. On the A628, before they closed it.

My 460 CD Auto (turbo) was fantastic on the A635 (Isle of Skye Road - Greenfield to Holmfirth) a few years ago - when the road was bad enough to be closed but hadn't been!

Sadly no photos of it

Love the way the alloys look on your 460.

Ha ha ha!!

Got a set of dark grey Taunus wheels, the ones fitted to later turbos

By pure coincidence, I bought them off the fella with the 460 turbo on Vesas!

Got a slight suspension drop on the way too, not too severe though, I already feel like my backside is gonna touch the speed bumps! Lol

How's that 440 treating you? You got any fogs for it yet?

I might know a guy who might have some, so let me know

I'm actually toying with another 400 myself now... And I called you mad?!

Steve

Yeah, I actually toyed with the idea of anthracite wheels for a while, but never got round to it! 440 isn't really progressing as much as I'd like, but that's becuase work keeps getting in the way! Nope, no fog lights yet, so I'd be very interested if you know a guy..

Post some pics when the wheels and drop are done.

Oh, and apologies to all for effectively hijacking this thread!..
