Guys i won that Bonus when it was first listed. I spoke to the guy and he assured me it was 100% mint. It was 240 mile from my house and i asked him if there was any rust on arches, sills, soors etc becuase i would be leaveing at 5 in the morning and had to travel 240 mile.He assured me it was A1-imagine my dismay when i get down there this morning and the arch lips have rotted through, the doors are riddled with rust, the engines spewing out oil from every seal etc, it really is a bag of bollocks that looks as though it has done 130k not 30k. The guy is an absolute tw@t believe me, how my dad didnt beat the crap out of him i dont know
STAY CLEAR GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

had a little mess today...

cleaned the car out and pull up the front carpet to make some space to fit the cage...

just waiting for some decent weather now, il get the cage all in place and start drilling the holes!!

also today i took off the front bumper, which took the piss to take off!!!!!
bolt wer stuck on and as the car beeing so low and bolts in a dodgy place took me ages and alot of strength to get off!!

but finally got it off, so will go and buy me a circle cutter when i get chance...

not done much but the weather did take it out of me!! brrrrrrrr was very coldddd!!
