With full intent to keep my 4th 4th to modify her, she had to be a lightweight spec with an LSD, and ideally a face-lift with as little rust as possible... and a colour I liked And with thanks to Marc (thank you Marc ) He pointed me in the direction of this little rust-free beauty...

She's completely standard, with 85,000 miles on her. Still limited and running in KMs. Her paint's seen better days and she's in need of replacement dampeners, but all in all... She's solid

Best wishes, Colin

lol that be the additional rear fog light I've not figured out how to turn the front ones on yet They're either not wired up, the bulbs are dead or there's a well consealled switch on board.

£350 on top of my last one

Steering wheels on... tho still skewif atm Stereo's in and even the bloomin aerial works!!!!.... Now that's a novelty for me!

I should hopefully pop my BMC CDA filter in tonight as well.

... My Tarox front discs, that I'll fit once some new wheels are sorted.
... My newly acquired Pro-Speed stainless exhaust with decat on the way... Tho I'm not looking forward to those bolts
... A swap of electric dials
... A gearbox oil change
... Removal of crappy rear fog light, and wire it into one of the reverse lights
... Sort out the front fogs
... Call out the RAC to sort the front windscreen trim
... De-glossify the interior
... And a good amount of t-cutting

Then the spending shall commence
