drove 950miles on sunday to pick up the bucket v2.1
It's looking good in its new white shell. Needs a damn good clean though and a few bits and bobs done.
It's in getting ( ) a MOT today, and the tracking looked at, ready hopefully for its maiden trackday on Sunday at Knockhill.
things to do...
Fit a horn
Fit rest of harness eye bolts to floorpan
fit fire extinguisher
Remove excess weight from shell

Is it just a hot hatch on sunday? or a "cold" hatch as they call it this time of year
I might fire up for something to do, get some vids of your beast coming out the hairpin

last hot hatch of the year...
I'm not going to be going beans out.... not sure of its handling, stability etc so may just be taking it fairly easy.
Will be getting layed up for a month or so after that
shopping list:
BTB Exhaust manifold
remap
yoko 048 tyres
New pads
rear discs (maybe)
LEDA suspension
rear perspex windows
fit GRP (after i've fixed it) bonnet
get GRP tail gate
sort out interior wiring etc
