I've re-angled my monitor & agree, no rubbing strips :oops:

Are those FOCAL front speakers fitted?

Thanks Kevan.

I really put a lot of work into this car because I wanted a car that was like new.

It would be nice to have a new car but trying to find one to replace the BX is impossible so this is the next best thing.

They sure are!
I have Focal 5" splits in the front, 4" coaxials in the rear doors, 4" coaxials in the side boot shelves and a 12" sub under the passenger seat.

It sounds like a concert in there!

I must admit to not having ever heard focal car speakers, however i've listened to JMLab speakers (the rather expensive top-end versions where the chepeast one is £3.5k) & they are bloomin awesome, so if the car speakers are just a smidgen like those, well i'm jealous already. Now if only Sonus Faber did car speakers :lol:

Being car speakers they aren't exactly like standalone speakers due to many factors including the less than perfect enclosures that these speakers have to live in but they are probably a smidgen like it. I am very impressed with their sound.

I'd love to put some TZI side strips on but they are no longer available.
I have complete albeit used set for an estate somewhere!

Well really? Perhaps we can come to some sort of an arrangement :wink:

God knows what it would cost to ship it though!

Postage to Oz isn't actually all that bad as long as it's within a certain size, which I forget now, but it seems the postage pric goes loopy after a certain length of box!

Well I'm interested as long as they are in really good condition. :lol:

Well a week on the road has passed without a single hitch. The car has performed faultlessly as expected and will be getting a further clean and then the window tinting will be removed and re-applied before getting a roadworthy certificate.

I'll keep you all posted.

They arent mint mate, they are a bit weathered to be honest and some parts are worn.
