Still looks pretty good. The H23 is a nice engine.

Hopefully you can get away with fitting a new cambelt and no damage done?

thats my plan put a belt on it and see what happens , from looking into the history of the car it had alot of welding done for an mot in 2015 the usual places around rear of sill/arch , looking forward to driving it to experience the 4ws :) the sound system is pretty good compared to my other one but i did find this in the boot which i assume is a factory fit amp am i right

bennyboy is correct.
I have kleptomania,
But when it gets bad,
