Well heres some pics form today. Its back 8 months and it hasnt changed all that much. (gutted) The turbo lump will go in, give it a few months, but i would rather it was at FCS. It runs but it dont stop! I went to bleed the brakes all fine bar the last one, rear caliper nipple sheared off! Bummmer!!

Well here is some pics, its nice to drive her again. Its stiff very stiff, but ill need some tax, breaks and insurance before i find out how well it handles.

AM happy though :)


Oh and before you say it neeeeeds a wash!

yeeeeeeeer lovin that mate!! :D...u done anything else to the turbo lump?


Just little bits and bobs, nothing too much, fitted the oil cooler, the water pump and thats about it. Its the costs that you dont think about that has stopped me, plugs, leads, dis cap, rotor arm, oils etc etc.

soon she will be evil though :)

actually, when i watch this picture, i kinda wish that the wheels were bigger!!


Wheels are the right size, its slow enough as is. Becuase they are black you dont notice where the tyre starts, which makes them look a little bigger :)

1.4 8v is back in it Sambo, and I agree wheels are big enough, any bigger it would have to be higher!

Kenny, we will, Kev will behelping to, he's done more to it than Ive managed!
