Cheers for the input guys, decided to hang on to this for a couple more years, getting married next year so decided I couldn't justify spunking 10k away on a new motor.
I have been quoted £800ish including paint, but I can get it at cost price, so I will get it. Thats an on the side price though, to be done occasional evenings and the weekends, been told 3 weeks at the most! Don't use the car much anyway so I can live without!
