welcome.  I'd recommend suspension first.  Decent set of coilovers will make it look and handle much better for £250-£400.

thanks for the advice and welcomes ...here are a few pics ....I managed to get the car for £5299.00




My plans are
1. lowering but need to know how low to go and what springs to go for
2.window tints
3.thinking maybe putting either smoked lights or clear lights on rear(not too sure at the moment tho)suggestions please
4.colour coding the black on the splitter and also on the back...unless there are parts I can put on instead.
5. I nice set of 17" or 18"  multi spoke alloys
I think that should do for now.
