Cheers for the comments guys.Yeah i agree she needs to be 30mm lower,so new springs are on the list.As for the exhaust i'm not sure on the make as it was on the car when i bought it.Only had her about 2 and a half years and cost £480 with full history and 115,000 on the clock.
Thanks jiminbmth,gonna check the less expensive route before i decide to go down the new dizzy route :wink:.
She will be getting a clean in the next few days and i will post some better pics up.Just fitted roof aerial as she only had the wing mounted one(blanked that off).VdudNinja,yours looks sweet m8 :cool:.

Well i've been told by a man in the know that it may be either coil or crank sensor problem.Hope its not the crank sensor as that is only a couple of months old.The coil is about 18 months old and was fitted by the AA when the previous coil packed in.
VdubNinja,tried to get the battery tray off but 2 of the bloody bolts are rusted on solid.Gonna give it another go tomorrow with a good dose of WD40.

Wish I could pal. No pc. Using my trusty ipad. May have to download the photobucket app.
