Awww, c'mon Kal! Honesty is the best policy! I can always file it under "constructive criticism"! :)

UUM it all makes sense now, those extra horses are to carry all that extra weight from the extra bits. Looks bloody awsome. New headlight, steel braided brake lines and some two tone polished rims wouldn't add too much weight maybe.

Ta ha! Indeed. However, you must consider the fact that I shed roughly 25lbs by swapping out the exhaust. The big, ugly catalytic converter was one heavy chunk of metal, as were each of the stock mufflers.

So it is kinda like going on a diet, you shed the pounds and then put them all back on and then a few more, now that I understand. :laughing:

I was going to say something about your ride weighing more than many family cars over here, but I was just being mean for no good reason.

Looks good.

If you can call a Citroen a "family car" then yeah. :wink: :laughing:

:) Citroen's tend to be boats, at least the older ones do. They have started chasing the 'citycar' market with the C2 which even I think is rediculous...

When we were in Orlando we had a compact or sub-compact rented from dollar - It turned out to be a Dodge Neon (actually not a bad motor, if they ever produce a 14 or 1600 version we may get one)

Anyway the Neon was bigger than Jules' Ford Escort at home... :)

They gave me a Neon as a loaner car once...... tiny and gutless is as about as nice as I can be about it.....

It's a whole different world over hear as far as what is considered 'big' or practical.... :laughing:
