Fortunately there are many around where we live. I got mine from the original owners with a complete history. It has 298,xxx miles on it and is still alive and kicking. If you need any help locating one let me know and I will do what I can to help you find a good one.

you mean the bodykits? yep well i used to work in a bodykits and body mod garage so the chances where i was going to fit kits to my cars.

but dont worry i like my T-5 R as it is and im not in the game of fitting kits anymore. the most i am doing bodywise on it is fitting black angeleyes

they handle better than anything, 50/50 weigh distribution, rear gearbox, LSD and lightweight.
i built a 3ltr v6 road and track car, that was fun, 220bhp, 1100kgs, slicks and straight thru side-pipes.
i bought the 2L TS for better reliability but lost the torque and noise :frown:

The recently aquired T5 which is proving rather humourous in the wet... needs a little TLC but bought mainly as a daily runner (sod the credit crunch) and workhorse whilst this is off the road for some TLC and more power...
