How you doing Loopee, small world eh!
Im glad you like the car, its always good when it goes to another enthusiast. I had it for about 6 months, and I only changed it because I have a habit of changing cars often (I want to own every car at least once
).
As mentioned, the car is a lovely example, especially with the 18" alloys. I know the bloke you bought it from had a problem with the coil packs, but they sound like theyre fixed now (and its a common problem on the mk1s anyway, so best to get them replaced). The car was my daily driver, and never missed a beat. I took it to santa pod and lost every race due to a complete lack of skill (erm, first time on the 1/4 mile and the conditions werent good, honest!
) but the car was great fun and attracts loads of attention wherever it goes (all good, no losers).
Let me know if you want anymore info. What car did you have before?
Oh, and TelfordMike, I want a rematch sometime....I think I have a better chance now
