...i now have my lude

Image

after a combined day of about 15 hours driving with LLL (most of which was his) we found this beaut.

2.2 h22a8 '99 4ws + motegi kit in good condition. only bad points we really could piont to are a small oil leak (simple fix) and the wheels could do with a refurb, other than that i think ive done excellent for my first lude for a car of that age with my budget.

ill do some proper pictures and a bit of a profile after ive given it a poke with a toothbrush and the suns back out

I got stuck in motorway traffic bringing mine back, that was when i discovered the sticky throttle cable when the car got warm. Thought i'd broke the car within an hour of owning it lol! Never happened on the test drive! :lol:

LOOOOOOOONG day :lol: viewed one bad lude and one good one. The oil leak is the cam bung. It Might even just be overspill from the filler. im not 100% yet. drives like it should, loads of paperwor and the text check came back clean so I think we have a new member to the family :D

sunday drives will be so much more fun now.
