I know. I brought it as a project and has only cost me £1550 in total and that's including the new g60 steels and tires so I am happy. It's on 86k FSH.
Next thing is CV joint and full service after I do the roof and mirrors. After will be a typhoon and map I think.

cheers everyone. Got the G60's on now, keeping them standard.
body shop sent the car back with a cash settlement for me to do the work as they were not happy about the previous ding it had so I will be sending it to a personal friend who is a VW sprayer and get more work done.
need to order new indicators, anyone got a like to a good set for me?
Ben, might take that typhoon next week, will PM you.

Good work mate! Glad to see you've stuck with this 1 as she's looking nice and will be mint after the body works finished.
You don't wanna sell it man, all the work you put into it restoring it and it's still low miles with FSH
Looking forward to next updates
