I have first dibs on that when it goes for my little brothers first motor.

Was pretty cool driving it back, poor Mark watching the mad brummie ( I mean silhilian) driving his little fessie.

I would disagree with it needing Tidying myself mate- just needs a bit of paint on the front and a more effeicient radiator.



Good buy that!

Jake

Cheers Jake, And a big thanks for coming with me to pick it up

I rang Jake last night at 11.30pm saying, "Be at mine for 7.30am as we are off to look at a car"

The radiator is being sorced as we speak

There you go Mark- would look better with 7.5s rather than 7's - Stanford hall next week should see some purchased- I'm not too sure on the prices of these ones???????????????
Or how about some nice 7x13 minilights

Jake
