I've owned her for almost three years. I bought her with one lady owner from new, full service history with 78000 on the clock. A 1.4 16v sport 1996. I then reached 101000 and the bottom end gave up the ghost, so time to change. I sourced an x16xe, rebuilt that December 2006 and a big end shell spun in its seat and starved the crankshaft of oil. So I then found another crankshaft and started the process again, this time going all out. See spec down below.

There are a few dings in the bodywork here and there. It could do with a new drivers door as the last one is slightly bent from when they attempted to break into it after me owning it for 2 days! I may be able to source one before hand though.
I think that’s about it. This is all from memory.
MOT Till April
Tax Till October ( I Think)
The only thing she would fail on an MOT is because she hasn't got a Cat. If it comes to it i'll get her MOT'd but it'll cost slightly more.
