I'll be getting the car tomorrow evening, at which point I'll take some pcs and make a list.
I'm also moving house at the minute so its a pain in the arse.

I've been asked a number of times for a price for the whole car, so I'll quit talling and come up with a figure today.

Sorry

Ok, so while the photos are uploading here's a list of what it's had done in the last 12 months

New Steering Rods,
New ABS ECU
New Radiator
New Heater Matrix.

New Pirelli p zero asymetrics all round.

In August it had on the front:
Bottom Suspension Arms
Shock top mounts
Shocks
Anti Roll Bar Linkage


The upholstery is i good condition, the gear box is excelent, and just as I thought I had the bloody thing sorted out the head goes.

Having already had it done once, and sick of chasing it, I'm cutting my losses.

The top of the engine is currently in boxes in the boot of the car, so if someone has a new head, likely you could start putting it in immediately.

anyway, pics....
