Anyway now im the proud owner of a 172 cup, 2 previous owners and only 44k on the clock!! It wasnt the best of starts as it was all chavved up like a bag of s**t but im slowly and shurely getting the old girl back on track!! This is what she looked like when i first bought her:
Arghhhhhhhhhh, wtf and had these bad boys on!!!
They soon got whipped off and replaced with a cheap e-bay set of mk1's i won for 99p! Im hunting for mk2's at the moment though, they are just temporary! So up next was to get the cambelt, waterpump, tentioners and idler done aswell as the clutch, gearbox oil and a full service. Then i found a set of turinis down near blackpool for a good price so drove down after work one night to collect them. Since then i have de-badged and de-wipered the rear, painted the front callipers blue, painted the front dimond and bullets anthracite to match the wheels and replaced the missing splitter with the old favourite fabia jobbie!! Here is a few latest pics i took on my phone, sorry about the quality!!
So next on the list is to fit a set of coilovers, new rear tyres and new disks and pads all round. At the moment im slowly starting to rectify the paintwork that has been neglected and washed with a wire brush by the looks of it for the last 8 years, lol!! Thanx for looking and any comments welcome......
