AkbarGr8 (AkbarGr8) 2010-10-31 00:45:43 +0500 #1645

685k since it was on lease. Had an offer for 735k but that didn't work out :). It seems cultus/gold (sona) appreciate with time lol. Enjoy your ride!

i forgot to take snaps of the engine bay, there is some work in there too.. there were some signs of rust occurring around the area where front suspension rests. it has been repaired too, will post pix soon

@Usman

keep her unless you can afford to dish out at least 750K to get something 'respectable'. Don't you wanna know which car replaced the cultus? lol see below:

MashAllah

AoA Usman:

MashaALLAH, your Cultus got a new life, new look! BTW, sad to see that new front bumper can't accomodate the fog lights? However, new tube type ones can be installed in new bumper.

One suggestion, remove this old Margalla Motor sticker from the rear window. Place the rubber ring in trunk opener key hole and install a chrome cap on silencer pipe. You really made me missing mine

@akbar.. shez a beauty.. what about the details?? engine 1.8?? my friend had one in black and it looked killer.. cant wait to see more

@aomair.. thats the thing i miss a lot, they haven't provided the fog lamp space in these bumpers.. and i really appreciate your suggestions.. there is still a lot of little stuff to be done. in addition to what u mentioned, i feel like changing the steering wheel to 3 spoked one, as in newer models. it still has margalla type speedo without tachometer, thinking to update that too. but i have literally gone beyond my budget so will have to wait for a while before i gradually apply these upgrades

Very neatly done. (Y)
I've been a silent visitor of this thread but after your upgrades I feel like commenting.
BTW Why you didnt install the new "BOLD" front grill with the "NEW" crystal tail lamps? (A)

UsmanAnsari (UsmanAnsari) 2010-10-31 08:23:22 +0500 #1657

^ that new front grill reminds me of 'place the mustache' game we use to play blind folded in our childhood & no need to comment on those hideous tail lights..

hammadameen (hammadameen) 2010-10-31 08:23:39 +0500 #1658

nicely done;-)

shqamar (shqamar) 2010-10-31 08:31:58 +0500 #1659

i am ready for the get together any one else wants to join ?

UsmanAnsari (UsmanAnsari) 2010-10-31 12:47:14 +0500 #1660

i think we should call for a date and see if members agree to join. I think coming Sunday, the 7th November would be ok. you people may give suggestions on a venue which is suitable for most of us.
