Every now and then a car comes along that screams LOOK AT ME! And Al's bright orange Mazda Rx7 does just that.

Now a car as sweet as this just doesn't appear overnight, it takes time, and money, loads of it! In order to feed his modding addiction Al has two jobs, and is trying to set up his own company as well! That is dedication for you! And I am sure you will agree, it has been worth every penny!

The first thing that strikes you is the colour, the Lamborghini orange paint suits the curvy styling of the 7 down to a tee, and helps to show off the fantastic bodykit. The kit comprises of Veilside skirts and rear end matched up with a limited edition Mazdaspeed front bumper, these, combined with the ARP GT-1 rear wing scream street racer through a megaphone at you! The car would look just as at home cruising around SoCal as it does in the streets of Falkirk!

To keep in with the street race theme, a HKS Titanium Hyper cat back system has been fitted to ensure that if you don't see it coming, the sound of the twin turbo rotary engine will be enough to send shivers down your spine.

The interior has been treated to EL gauges, a light smoke window tint and a shiny gearknob, while a full Bose sound system paired with a Pioneer headunit ensures that Al's choice of tunes sounds as good as the car looks.

This is one car you would sell your left arm for, it combines style, speed and aggression to create the ultimate street racer look.
