Well its been 2 years since the original one got stolen and burnt out so thought i would go to where it was found for the first time.(my old man took the burnt out pics, i couldnt face going there at the time)

Might sound sad, but was very emotional parking the new one up there to take the pics. There was still some molten alloy and plastic on the ground, i assume from the old girl, so a little peice of it lives in the ashtray now



And the new one paying its respects!




RIP F310 PAR

Just great! Awesome job mate! I wish I could fit an engine on my own like you did. I'm in love with my car even after 4 years now and probably because it's my first one too. If I could only get the 1.3L engine changed any advice for a starter?
