I like this. Its understated but cool, the smoked indicator covers match the dark trim, round lights a bit retro, big bumper, lowered with smart alloys......and of course its a tin top which means it looks well proportioned. Carryong a bath tub on top just doesnt do it for me. Why id even go so far as to say it resembles my very own beast, which i'll get around to posting some pics when i can suss out me camera!

The T25 in its finest guise. :ok

The ride is fine and it drives a lot nicer than my moderately-lowered bay! Still running original shocks but with the bump stops removed on the rear and all but one removed on the front.

Its up for sale now but I don't want to sell it!! :lol:
