Default Anyone else agree with me

Got £5000+ in compo.. was gonna have ma rs completely done up, needed a bit of working doin in the floor..

But then i keep finking, fix it, sell it, get a mint one with a cossie engine in..


Im soo attatched to my rs tho, in an ideal world id rather have the money turn it to mint, and go nuts with it, with eventually a cossie engine in..

But dunno.. suppose what id get for the rs + my comp would buy me one hell of a blue ovall

like this for example

depends if you can be bothered with the hassle.

buy one already sorted, if its done well it will save you a lot of time, hassle, and money.

but then i suppose you don't get the credit or sense of achievment

really need 2 get an estimate for wat i want.. coz its off the road tho its not like i can drive it about.. or put it on a trailer n drive it round, no tow bar on ma rover or ne towing experiance, part from one time i reversed my mates racing cars on the trailer out of his yard..

I want the body mint, like u see all these concours panzies cars, or the shit u see central blast cleaning doin. And then once the bodys mint go for atlas diff, 15s, 4pots, put a cage back in, and other fancy bits!
