We got one!!!!!!!!
After sifting through poor and barely average cars we came across a car in Bristol. The trek was a nightmare and we didn't get back until 1:00am.
Rachel is now the proud owner of this FRST.
A few niggles with it but nothing too nasty and the previous owner had obviously cared a lot for it. My weekend will be a busy one

Like I said it does need some TLC but then it's a 14 year old car 
Few squeeks and rattles to chase and it seems down on power but there is no smoke at all and it starts straight from cold. Only issue I have is I need to put a new starter motor on as it won't turn over once hot. New one arrives tomorrow and it should be on by the evening

The big clue for me was the identical number plates...
I meant hun, there's some tractor tyres piled up behind the car in the first pic, just making a joke asking if they were going to be fitted....I don't know what your on about mate, lol

It has been painted at some point but when it was done they actually removed the kit and replaced the strips rather than painting round them like some of the ones we looked at.
Green stripe will stay and Rachel has already told my bro's mate to "F&*! off!" when he told her to fit a DV.
I have secured my old Stealths back for the sum of Ł50 . Not ideal but better than the (mintier than mint) 3 spokes

I know NOO as well you bought the car from a miss yandell
Her brother owns his own garage and got a mint S1 rst and a sapp cosworth plus loads of other track day toys.
He is the chap who does all the work on my sapp as well plus all my mates RS`s and my famliys normal cars

Car did have a bit of paint work around the filler cap where they go. but was all cut out and had a new repair pannel fitted all done correctly
He told me today she sold it they will be happen that it`s gone to a good home
