Well Iv bought this recently always thought they were awesome wee things, so decided to try one,

This came up local and after viewing noticed it needed couple wings due to rust n a huge dent, lacquer peal of the roof n dents in pass door ect, needed 4 tyres, went for a thrash and it was a done deal, got it for a fair price and away I went,

Found 2 wings and a proper set of ek9 headlights for £170 so it's a win win, just need the dents sorted? Any recommendations? Went out today n had a good trash of it and happily no faults to report,

Got 4 tyres fitted at laws on Friday as well as 4 wheel alightment, cannot believe the difference it made to the cars drive feels so much tighter now, while it was on the Ramp I had a look over it and its clean underneath but did find the anti roll bar link nut was loose so quick shot of a 14mm spanner and its sorted!

Anyway it's got bilstein shocks n eibach springs on it, sports cat and a whales ***** induction kit,
