Here is my van that i bought last week, Its a 1990 G 1.8D with 80 odd thou on the clock and good history.

Drove her up the road and got to work straight away, just going to tidy her up and respray Gentine Blue sitting on Refurbished rs turbo alloys. nothing fancy just a nice clean look.

Got the rear doors reskinned yesterday and started on a few repairs, the n/s sill gap was shocking at the front so cut and welded it and it sits much better.

here are a few pics..............
