So tortrons (autocorrected to tortuous appropriately) Q15 rolled up on the back of a truck today.  "you're a brave man" quipped the decidedly British truck driver. fired up first pop, standard bugs vs brake cleaner stz, unloaded the many spares which I can't wait to have a good sift thru, and round the block, went great! Changing up gears easy, down not quite so  Heaps to do but will have to wait till after backyard wedding/ hose down & ribbon mods. Fit perfectly in the wrong garage naturally

Looks awesome, way more ground clearance than that soft-roading mess behind it!

edit: 666 rep yeah!

TIL that 2nd gen mirages were actually the national car of malaysia for some time, built as the proton saga (some in nz too) and the derivative iswara, and hence you can still get heaps of random crap to jam on em, in exchange for those sweet, sweet ringgits yo
