You could break that and earn a few quid. The brakes will sell for at less Ł100 including the discs (as long as they work!).

looks like a bargin.

great project. You do know it's the same rear axle as on a 405? Should be able to get hold of an mi-16 axle since everyone is breaking them. Front end is 306 if you didnt know. Slam it and gti-6 the bastard
