Thanks Everyone

 The swansea experience was amazing , im hoping to move back made the best mates of my life there n didnt want to come back up here to widnes (somewhere outside liverpool and a sh*thole to boot) Swansea has its fault but felt more at home there than anywhere else

 Yeah len , those Mi16 engines are brilliant if you relived them from there 4 door hell (knows lens got a 405 mi16)  :evil:

Nothing against the 405 its just about 200 too big , and the mi16 205 is the car that pug should have built , but for the everyday hack i need somethin thats not going to crumble when i sneeze inside it so a nice mk2 will do  :smiley:

Now dont get me started Stu!

The one they should have made was the 405 Coupe! Keep looking at mine and thinking! If I welded up the rear doors and moved the B pillar back and chopped the roof!
Gonna do it one day - but probably not to mine - get a body from a scrappy and then swop my bits onto it if it looks ok!
