Cheers for the comments guys, it makes it all worthwhile!

Cossie362 - i'd have loved a turbo but insurance for a 21 year old student is bad enough on an XR! Just workin my way up to my ultimate car - the Cossie!!

Cheers

Ross

Iluvfords - car is bog stock standard XR3i so bhp is pretty pathetic but the car quite easily see's off the local Nova's! Think a re-shell is on the cards however...

Chiz man - just let me know if you need a shot of the camera!
