Thats Looking sweet Frankie, Well done mate cant wait to see it finished
Interior is looking very presentable, top job
Do you carry a passenger in the rear at all times to assist you with applying the handbrake though?
It's already looking MILES and MILES better, looks like shes been saved
Although whoever fitted those wheel weights wants shooting!

Frankie - if you bring it to me for a weekend before next May - I may have a go at detailing it. Bear in mind that I will ask for a contribution towards things like claybar & polishing pads.

I bid against you then lol, only thing that put me off was the mileage, I brought a 850r with 130k from near qady, I'll have to start a project link but busy with the house at the mo.
Mines a bit of a mixed bag, very smokey from cold,but drives fine, not 100% what it is, I can see pcv is blocked, but other than that I'm thinking turbo seals or valve stems or rings.
I'll comp test rings and do pcv and replace turbo, hopefully not valve stems, but I won't start until new year.
Not even sure of specs, previous owner didn't know anything, I know fully adjustable konis, struct braces and boost gauge goes well off the White, so well have to see.
I'll watch your build
flying moose you selling a 850r!!!!!!
now you see me OPPS now ya dont lololol
