White 5 door - Scarborough Sea Front

GT Quaily

GT Quaily

Spotted a white 5 door Almera N16 (think thats right :roll:).... the model after the GTi, the one EDK drives..... blah, blah, blah.... Ya get the jist :eek:

So, its a 5 door white with black multi spoke alloys and high line spoiler (top of the rear window). Did look as though it was a cherished motor mind.

Woulda been about 20:00hrs near Oasis cafe on the Sea Front at Scarborough, woulda got some of the reg but I was too busy noshing down on my Silks chips, fish, bread bun and 3 cans of 7up ;)

Man can't live on bread alone.

Anyone on here,
Paul
;)
 
Not that I'm turning into a pro stalker or owt, but I reckon its a family on holiday. Seen it again with kids in the car.

Had a close look at it and it does look nice.... damn my memory..... think it was a 54 plate.

Nights for ya.... lol

yep on hols with my mrs and daughter, got this almera for the trips to work ,1.5 16v se , i used to do sound offs and big hot hatch days , but gave up the cars ( you never really do!) but kind of took to the almera so iv quickly done a few mods to make it look a wee bit better and modded door panels and boot to fit a wee drop sounds for the rest of this year, will be doing new bumper extensions and skirts respraying in the factory colour , interior will be getting new seats , getting back seats and doors matched and big sounds, not wanting ott but i intend on keeping it a few years so want it looking good, few pics of it the now, ps doors now have speakers in the doors not just grilles

Sweet little whip, will look great with the splitters/valances done.

yep even putting rgm skirts made a big difference to the appearance, but i like the bumper valances on a silver n16 on this site, i want to keep original bumpers , had a proper look and didnt think a lot of kits are that nice on this shape of almera , will be keeping interior colours to grey/black leather? alcantara? will decide in the winter!
 
Looks mint, i really llike that...but it does need front and rear splitters.

Oh and coilovers.

Possibly the best N16 ive seen. Well done.

not done much to it really! white always stands out (but is a cunt to keep clean)bodywork wise added original big wing nissan spoiler, rgm skirts, tsw wheels refinished black,eibach springs, as said added small ice install just for running around , just really decided to keep it so after summer will be adding bumper valances , getting it sprayed , then will gut interior, wont be doing coilovers as the ride will be too hard , got coilovers on another car and it hurts even if you go over a stone will just put quality shocks and possibly change to eibach sportline instead of the pro springs iv got on!
trying to keep it looking fresh but not ott , main part for me will be interior , want to keep it grey and black,
 
Very nice looking N16 mate, top marks :thumb:. White body with black wheels is always going to win :). Looking forward to seeing your plans come to fruition.

I've got BC Racing Coilovers (there's groub buy #2 going on right now), and they're pretty comfy but give exceptional handling ;). If you don't want to go that route though then I can recommend Koni Yellow Sport dampers to go with your Eibachs (or get H&R springs).

Oh and check out Autostyle for rear spats for our Almera. Quite nice I think.

cheers mate:wave: had a look at few cars on this site and the better ones like yourselfs maintain most of the original shape of car but made it better im just trying to make original car look better , i did about 3 seasons with a mk1 renault clio 16v and won many hot hatch days concours and hifi install and kind of miss it even though i am 30 now but iv got the bug back , i still have the clio which gets ran once a month as well as a family car but i think the almera could be a stunner given a wee bit of work

I very much agree. It's something I always thought while I had my phase 1 N16 and put my plans into action with my current phase 2 :). Come on the N16s! lol
