UPDATE FOR MARCH 2013:
I have literally just bought this very same car, the owner in this thread sold it to a you guy near me who didn't do anything much other than a new bonnet and had the engine set up. (he had it from 2007 to 2013 I think)
I am now going to rebuild the car and tone it down a little more, the carbon fibre splitter and roof spoilers are gone and I am about to pick up a complete standard interior to use all the trims (will have some nice Cossie style recaros trimmed up in leather) the M3 mirrors will be off this weekend with std 205 phase 2 gti in place. Body work is going to have a full repaint and MAD are going to fit a complete new after market ecu and probably a new Borg Warner twin scroll turbo and manifold.
I have been speaking to allard today and they are going to make up a nice new fuel tank. I am then putting in a touchscreen Kenwood satnav double din head unit.
Soundproofing is going in and a new carpet trim and roof lining. May be going Stack dash if funds allow.
Goes well now on 300-350 bhp and hope for closer to 380 - 450 with the new ecu and turbo....just looking if rs500 intercooler can be crammed in.
Oh yes......the rear windows are being picked up Tomorrow.

Still on 4x4 box, why do you ask?
Feels tight as a drum and has still only done 35,000 miles from when built...massive history file too.

Thanks for all the comments. I have just picked up a mint phase 2 205 interior in black and got the window surrounds and wing mirrors etc....I will take a lot of pics and add them to this thread as I go.
