well i dont want to ruin it will stay standard on the out side at least
got to get the service out of the way 1st then i can play about with it a bit so far the only modification is stainless cat back that was there before i brought the car
going to ring up bb tuning end of next wk to get a few bits (ht leads plugs rotor arm and summit else as the got a special offer on!!)
as for body work yea its mint apart from the little strip that runs under the rear lights!!!! chep bit to get done and it will be going into body shop and get the whole car mopped to bring tha shine back to the paint |

dont bother buying those bits from BB tuning, they will be cheaper from any motor factor for exactly the same thing, special offer or not.
Nice car, good to see them owned by decent owners rather than bought by neds, ragged about, neglected and then scrapped.
Stick around, I'm sure you'll find this place preferable to the 'other' forums! |

H reg as well, nice!
I just scored myself a black H reg hatchback as a fixer upper. Needs a tiny bit of attention bodily here and there, but I intend to bring it back to mint condition. |

well I got very lucky as the guy I got it off was moving house and the alternator went. He was desperate to get rid of it so I got it for free but I gave the guy £75 as it had a tank full of fuel and 4 new pirelli tyres. |
