I bought her around a month ago for £500 from an old man who had had it since new.

I will get a progress/build thread up soon once I get hold of some older pictures, but here's how she stands today.













I know she looks a little high, the rear coillies still have an inch to drop and I shall be sorting the fronts this weekend so I can hopefully get her on her belly in no time.

What do you reckon?

It's in fairly good condition yeah! Only sign of rust is on the edge of passenger door, and it has a few car park dings. The interior however, is MINT!

Plans at the mo are to just enjoy it buddy, I've done coilies, wheels, plates, grille, bumpers, new badges, crosshair crystal headlights, all red rears (tried half tints and m3 style ones too), removed all the arch trim, and a few more little bits. Constantly been on the hunt for new bits and bobs, gonna give it a rest for a couple of months. Show the girl some time instead, she's been neglected.

..I would like yellow headlights though.

Wheyyy, cheers guys. Well chuffed with all the comments.

Slammed it more now and am in the process of making my headlights yellow.

I love the turbines too.
