Yer i had a great start didnt I lol. Yer the only pics i have at the min are from the ebay add... i will photobucket them then post them. The car needs a little work (1st thing putting the sump on tight! ((a few oily drives around n.e. lincs lol))) Good clean, new headlights and to be slightly lifted. Back to black wouldnt go a-miss on the bumpers,seals and other black bits.

Not alot really, the list is growing slightly as I look around this forum. One thing i want to do is change the dump valve as its very very pshhhht (very chavy) and for now thats about it. Eventually i want to drop in a power steering rack as 240bhp through a rack and pinion is...well...scary at full whack, as you said its an absolute rocket of a car.
