This is my new car. Paid £220 fine english dollars for him. Needs a bit of a tidy. Who knows what the future holds? XE, LET, V6?
Plan is to use him to learn to weld and gain mechanical skills ect he's something im not afraid to have a go on.
Have no plan in particular at the moment, just see what happens
BTW the car is named Ross due to the R855 plate 
Seems solid enough ect, few small dings ect need sorting but i dont think I want him to stay white.
Maybe fancy a tigra front?
what does CS think?

right so gave the car a quick wash and hoover in time for going to its new home tomorrow...
note the manky, base spec interior which is going to the tip tomorrow. No mfd or rev counter.
Bonnet release is fucked, shelf is missing, inner cover for rear lights and also interior mirror.
dont know what im doing interior wise but it will be very special
now for outside
As you can see theres a few dings and light rust spots, the back lights and wheels are shite and jenko is hopefully buying the spoiler. Overall though im happy with it, the car is what i want and im excited at the prospect of sorting it out.
heres the bay
engine bay sems ok, few light bits of bubbling that im not worried about...
check back tomorrow for some half stripped car pics
