I can't believe the demand for vento's recently. I sold mine a few years ago, 2.0 GL decked on coilies, white estorils, full exhaust, storm grey with TnT, 130k odd for £800! Now I could get nearly double that!

i bought mine for £900 not long ago lol got an update now

car with dodgy blue dash board so started pulling it out


Dash out


Wiring central locking and remote engine start all works except only problem is key has to be in the 1st position in the switch for it to work properly all because i cant find a 12v positive when the engine starts lol



new black carpet going in


Heated seat loom ( dont know if you can see it) hidden nicely all under carpet and wont be seen when you get in, as mounting the switch on the seat base plastic


got bored and fitted some aero wipers


The put most the dash back in but realised when i went to the tip i threw some of panels away i needed doh!
