New Hardtop owner!

Tieme85 · 20-03-2008, 10:09 AM

Goodday!
I`m Tieme and i`m from Holland (europe).
3 weeks ago i bought myself a mazda lantis hardtop.
It`s a 2l V6 engine.. and has 125 kw.. the steering wheel is on the right ( here everybody drives with the steering wheel on the left).. so it`s quite unique..
Maybe my gramatics in englisch are not so good.. i`m sorry but that`s the way it`s gonna be..

Here some pictures of my ride.

and now a few pictures of what i have done in the past 3 weeks..

Jaagruti 18"

Clear sidemarkers.. and as you can see the car needs some lowering.. about 2 weeks and then he is 4 cm lower..

and a freeflow exhaust.. with the silencer.. cause i`m coming home in the middle of the night after work..

I hope i can get a lot of information from the forum

Welcome to AGT

Did you specially import it?

Tieme85 · 20-03-2008, 11:24 AM

Exhaust is looking cheap with the silencer in.. But the sound without the silencer is uhh.. horny

Think it`s a matter of taste..

I didn`t imported the car myself.. The dealer brought it in 2005 to Holland..
Did some modifications to make it uh.. streetlegal? And now i`m driving it.

I've just never seen a Hardtop in Europe before, that's all

Tieme85 · 20-03-2008, 12:05 PM

I had never seen or heard about the car myself.. so it`s special for me to.. Only problem is.. there are not very much aftermarket products available for this car.. and i`m not very good with my hands..
