Finally! A real dedicated MK1 club!

Xhermes is my board name and I'm from the Netherlands. I'm also busy with a company called Infinity Performance with a friend of mine. Specialised in MR2's ofcourse



I drive a black MK1 t-top from 1988.

Fitted with Koni's, tein camberplates, free flowing custom Simons exhaust and some other things.

Here's a few pics and vids :

Hello welcome to the club

for some reasons your pics dont work but love that Vid what else have you done to the Mr2

Best colour BTW and the rarest

[Xhermes]

Weird... You can find them on http://picasaweb.google.com/koks.harm/Wales/

Its the black MK1

What else have I done...

Uhm Toyo T1R tires, SC rear lights, Apexi RSM, Nardi Torino, Trust shiftknob.

Ferodo DS2500 brakes on refurbed calipers on front. Porterfield R4S brakes on the back. The fronts are getting swapped for ST185 brakes. 277 mm discs with Ferodo DS2500 pads. I also have Goodridge brake lines.

The car is in pieces atm waiting for new bushings, springs ( its on Apex front and Jamex rear ). Going for RS*R's . Also a new tranny is going in. I've also got one Recaro SR to go in.

I've also got a set of Autovation pedals lying around.

Plans for the future are. Flares with 15x8+0 wheels ( if anyone know some light/cheapish wheels in these sizes ) and later a 4AGE 20v.



This was with the old wheels and front fenders.

What were the black wheels that were on there in your album they look lovely

[Xhermes]

I want aswell! I lost one on the way back from Wales!

My left rear wheel broke off and I lost it somewhere on the M4 near Swindon.... I think they were called BBS Stella II. Not sure though.15x7+28

[Xhermes]

Oh I will be there ! Drop me a mail against that date though. Have you already made reservations etc? If you need anything let me know

Hiya

Thats a good looking MK1 you have there.

Seeing yours reminded me of a red one that we saw in Sluis, Netherlands a few months back - my other half is from the West-Vlaanderen (sp) area of Belgium so sometimes our MK1's are over there - other times they are here in England.

This is a pic of the red one and our T-Bar that i took:

You guys should come to Karfreitag am Ring the 10th of April. A BIG gathering of enthousiasts at the ring. The Dutch, German and Belgium MR2 club are coming...

The Red T-top doesnt look familiar though

I will try to remember to remind you nearer the date.
We will have our reservations with bookatrack, as we work for them - they arrange our hotel etc.

thanks
maybe see you then
