I've not had it long, stripped it out to see if there were any nasty surprises under the carpet. None found, so that's a bonus!
Think I'm gonna sort some new brakes, lower it and take it for an M.O.T, tax it and drive it as it is for the summer.
I'll let it go where it goes, we shall see.
It's real good you saved a 2 door shell mate well done
