Dave's 20vT Mk2
« on: 04 April 2012, 17:23 »
Bought this mk2 on 1st April for the princely sum of £200 which if it didn't get bought, was going to go to our local scrappy!

Pics from first visit..





Milage.. 55K and bodywork suggests this is genuine, unbelievable  :grin:

First step is to start 'De-Chavving' it.. Nice tints on all rear windows  :sick:



Off  :wink:



Next was the grill, like the pinstripe round them and would have probably been easier to buy one with it, but had a few rattle cans so masked it up and got on with it..

Sprayed



On




Spraying up bumpers at weekend, so will have some more pics then..

Yeah mate, the bits that are supposed to be, they were originally red from what i can tell  :grin:  then painted black, horrifically!  :rolleyes:

Possibly! We shall see, with a 1.8t in my possession and the current value they are worth, it might work out cheaper using that, than selling and road tripping  :lipsrsealed:

However i'm completely in 2 minds about this..
