Thanks! this was me guys, out on random drives through the country with the gf, enjoying the lovely weather! I even got her to help clean it for me! :D
It was probably NG54 VRC you saw mate, it's been for sale on Bone lane but was also being driven around still by the owner who was trying to sell it privately too. Unroadworthy bodge of a car would be an understatement for this motor!
Some of the cars issues have been touched on here...
Small update - It's cropped up for sale yet again 2 days ago, as a private sale this time instead of through the garage - £2,999, £1000 off it just like that.

I looked at the same car today which is for sale again at a very small independent garage on Bone Lane, Newbury!
49,000 and £3,995. I didn't get as far as looking at any of the paperwork for it or even opening the doors as I had already walked away after telling the dealer that I thought it...
Liquid Yellow would suit, perhaps you could break up the colour a bit with some gloss black panels.
See these two photos to see what I mean.

^ Looks great that, will look even better once the wheels have had a refurb :approve: (if it's not the light playing tricks?)
I like the mini parked behind it too ;)
I did get some of it out but not all of it, I could probably find a better sticker or something to put there in all fairness lol. Well at the moment it's lowered 30mm all round and it's a comfy ride on 16"s, the car can take bumps at 35 mph like a dream, I just fear that lowering it too much...
I got the Rear sport badge to cover a scratch that miraculously appeared while it was parked, otherwise I wouldn't have.
The side bullets are the standard 1.4 and 16V sprayed silver.
I am tempted to go a tad lower although speed bumps are a bit of an issue where I live, they are everywhere! haha...
