Excellent
Always ended up buying and selling when rent was due

still never made a loss apart from my 405 that blew up (to be fair it never had a service and the oil filter came loose and fell off cause it had never been changed.. i didn't care about it (being a Pug) so didnt look after it as well as my fords lol
My mate Nick in Devizes has a smokestone 4x4 too (Nick80 i think) and his bro is always on here... When you say Gary do you mean Gary who had a mental black one a while back...?
Always keep an eye out for them round town, seen a white 2wd one with no skirts (looks like its had the sills replaced), the bright yellow one everyone has seen, and a mint white 4x4 as well. There was a flint grey one hangin around for a bit too. Used to be a lot of them around Swindon in the old days, but everyone seems to have sold up and got M3's etc
Always wanted a cossie since being a kid, but never been able to afford it. I'm temping but as soon as I go perm, i'll look into it
Question is keep this as its a real good shell (still has ford underseal underneath believe it or not) and look into modifying it - 24v or cos engine etc, or i guess sell it and just buy a standard decent cossie (which lets face it are pretty damn hard to find these days - its a flipin risk buying an old car, yet alone an old performance motor thats been ragged)
will be cool to see your motor ... always get to the shows in the summer
Considering having the ambers back in, but then I only like them with headlamp protectors
