    Collected new car today

    Well worth a 7 hour round trip to collect it.
    and for those observant people out there it is gareths red brick.

    Needs a lot of TLC so gonna spend tommorrow cleaning t cuting and waxing.

    Needs a few things doing to it such as abs/tracs light on (gareth said he resolded unit to maybe a sensor gone)
    Clock spring broken so air bag light on (if anyone has one send us a pm and we can try and do a deal)
    Front passenger wheel badly kerbed not sure even if it can be refurbed
    Power steering seems very stiff and a bit of a noise from it ( if anyone has a pump pm me )

    Part from the above just needs a lot of elbow grease

    Nice, looks like it has the potential to be a nice car, be interested to see some shots of it after your tlc session.

    Nice little project, doesnt sound like too much needs doing and certainly nothing major. Should keep you busy over the summer.
    Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong

    Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....
