Here's how my engine bay has changed over the past 5 years.

 

 

This is what it looked like back in 2008 when I bought it.

Got it running in 2009 and left it like this for 3 years.

2012.

2013 - back to 308. Have tidied up the leads and wiring since this pic.

Changed a little since then,

(but dont seem to have a decent photo!)

 

Custom extractors, longer inlet manifolds, alloy radiator and a few other things.

Extractors and manifolds are off to be ceramic coated soon, this was a couple years back even-

What could you do to make it better?? L8 is still the best engine bay by a long shot.
