hi guys!
a few months ago i wrote my car off my 1st car on the m25
heres a piccy of that


there was a hell of a lot of chassis damage and that was that!
....
after a few freaky coincidnces i got this tatty fez foer the grand some of £30!!! ( £26 once ya deduct the money i found in it behind the seats ;D )

after some hard work, a lot of autoglym products and a few buys on ebay ...



( minus an exhaust in this pic but thats sorted now! THANK YOU RICH! )
.... how it often looks after a hard drive... not very clean!
the car itself ws quite sound, just needed a small bit of weilding and some wipers etc and a damn good service.
its got all the recaro interior back in it and im d**n ha[ppy with how its all gone, currently has a 1.1 4 speed (
) engine in with just a peco, 4-2-1 and K and N which i got for next to nothing but, once the insurance has cleared a little i have a 2.0 mondy engine in waiting!
since these pics were taken i have added some 3.5 mirrors and i have got hold of some -30mm Gmax springs, but ive only ever herd bad things about them?i have xr2i springs and shocks currrently on it.
i know at the mo its just another replica, but plan wise the mondeo engine is on the list, i also want to euro it up a bit, ie. lower it and i am on the look out for some wider deep dish rims.
cheers for looking
