Tom's BRM

My car is standard at the moment, except for a shiny new head gasket. I'll post up some higher quality pics later, these two were just taken with my phone cam.

You'll have to excuse my grafiti-ized garage in the first picture. I live in Nottingham and that's what happens when you leave your garage door unlocked!

Looking very nice matey! Welcome to the site, enjoy your stay and ask anything you want!

p.s. Fancy some site stickers :D

Thanks, but I'll pass on the stickers for now. I would be interested to know what head unit you would recommend though. After the head gasket fix I've found that the tape/radio deck isn't working. I don't have a code, or know how to enter one. I was going to get a CD player anyway, just not sure what to get. Any ideas ?

If you were going all out for functionality with built in sat nav, etc i'd say the Pioneer Avic X1R, although it costs quite a bit.

I've got a JVC KD AVX1 as it plays dvd's on a teeny weeny screen. Has good sound quality too.

Gave her a wash and polish at the weekend.

looking good dude - i got a sony CDX GT something or other - pretty good has loads of outputs, ipod connection, MP3 etc.
Got it from www.caraudiosecurity.com - theyre good, never had any trouble from them and cheap. My head unit was £169.99 in halfords when i got it like 2 years ago and they sold it for £120. Brilliant!

Just put two new dunlop sport 9000's on the front. The car feels so much more stable now. I think that I got the last two SP9000's in Nottingham. They are being replaced by sport max now and so are hard to get hold of.

Those rims could do with a bit of a clean up now !

Here are a couple of snaps of my new head unit. Its a pioneer DEH-P7900UB and the sound is FANTASTIC. The screen also fills the car with a lovely blue aura at night, which is nice once you realise that the flashing blue ISN'T actually the cops trying to pull you !
