Dave, stop being so damn good at doing stuff ok? You're making us all look bad :lol:

Wheels look amazing though - top work!

I know it doesn't really give much to go on but surely there aren't that many red jrsc ludes kicking about.

@farlow if you can find the banzai advert and scan/ take a photo of it for me that would be great.

Thankfully it wasn't far away so there wasn't much to lose. :D

Yeah that's it. Cheers.

The brakes, suspension, induction kit and sound system are all there. And the old chap I got it off had bought the inovite alloys with Avon tyres too but I had no use for them.

What date was the magazine from?
It had previously been up for sale at £12k a few years earlier I believe.

Turns out it was jap performance not banzai, my mistake but it was this issue from May 2011 although if I remember correctly is was advertised for a few months. Must have had difficulty shifting it :shock:

Anyway here is the issue

@indigolemon in a few weeks I'm not going to have time to do anything to it so I'm making up for it now!

Thanks @farlow really appreciate you digging up a little background of the car for me. It had been left neglected for 18 months after the mot ran out once the chap up here bought it. Brought back to life now though and in the road where it belongs.

Wrapped the badly faded bonnet just before Knockhill at the weekend.Image

And the last of the Milano pink I'm going to cover up was the door handle surrounds. The handles themselves were ok.

I'm now thinking of putting it up for sale as I think I have taken it as far as I can without spending £££ chasing more power.
I would appreciate a bit of input on a realistic sale price please. :)
