Looks mint, little let down by the brake servo but I'm sure that's in the pipeline

Amazing and looks perfect

What's the story with this one? Did you restore it or buy it in a good condition? I see above it was painted anyway. Did you have to source loads of parts for the build?

It's so worth it. I really really like series 1's.


EDIT - In fact is this one that you jointly own? It's ringing bells.

The S1 has a timeless look about it, always fresh.

None of my mates are into cars but over the years the only one they all loved was my S1

This is a stunner, if only they had PAS and A/C now that I am an old fart and like my creature comforts

Looks lovely.

Couple things I noticed. I cant see a one way valve on the small vac pipe on the bottom of breather. This will never work right as the boost will escape back through the breather after the butterfly. Also will effect the state of tune idle and on boost etc.

Also the throttle cable and leads are not correct but I guess you know that already.
