When I bought this car, it came with the dual fuel system.Daniel2019 wrote:Dual fuel?? Interesting.. Any more info on that?
And hello!
Still runs on premium fuel at car shows and when I start it.
Gets 600-700km out of the 50L gas tank. Pretty amazing for this little sports car.
Done just over 200***km and still running pretty. Only a custom cooler intake and the exhaust.
Soon to convert her from auto to manual and maybe do an engine swap in a few more months.
Lowing it soon with the coil overs, and new 17-18" rims.
But would love suggestions for some nice looking rims

Have you got any more pictures or technical information on the gas setup? I'm just curious about it

But, I know it has a computer hooked up to it so if anything is failing in the system they can plug it into a laptop and check everything for me.

Re: Michelle's 1998 FTO GPX

The rest of the car looks very tidy too.. nice

Boot space is horrible. Takes up entire spare tyre compartment.dstocks wrote:Your boot space would have to be horrific.
Isn't so great for shopping, but back seats will do.

It's literally sitting on top of it, wasting space.dstocks wrote:So how do you get to your spare. Im guessing you dont have one.
Upgrading my RAC road assistants soon, if I ever have a flat tyre they can just tow me home instead. Get what I pay for. ;P
