Would love it however I think I will get this one first.

The car looks great BTW!

Keep in touch I might be interested in a couple of months if you still have it!

What would this car be worth if I just fixed the clutch and sold it?

I don't want to sound like I'm pushing my car but you're only 200 miles away from me and my car is not a cat C and is 300 quid and I would say just looking at pics of the 2 mine looks better!

I don't want to but it looks like it's going that way. Got a long weekend so I will see how I feel and probably start taking it to bits. :(

Omg, the wording in the add has evolved yet again LOL

http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C384088

I have finally got her home. It's been a long day and I must confess, It's in xxxx condition so may break her :neutral:

Got some decent mods though so well worth the hassle not to mention that my boy enjoyed the ride but prob the day off school more so :-$

Some pix of the beast :

The shut line on the near side door is about three times the width of the off side! Bit worried that she may be bent.

More pix to follow soon.

I would love to rip her to bits and give her a new life but I may be best of breaking and getting a better example

Not a great fan of the alloys but the 'black and polished' look is coming back (Gt86, new BMWs).

Def do an HPI check before you travel or see if someone on here is close enough to go take a look for you. :)


They are seat covers costing $450 :shock:
