Brought this two days ago at the price of £700
Did a 580 mile round trip from liverpool to scotland to pick it up
Got told it had mot sorted all paperwork out gave me history mot had ran out two days ago deciding id come to far to leave without i decided to take the risk and buy it

Heres few pictures of how it stands i know its been around a bit




spec list:
2.0L 8v engine (logged as 1.4 up to new owner to change)
kent rally cam with vernier pulley (sounds amazing)
full custom made stainless steel exhaust
coilovers all round
k&n induction kit
fuel pressure regulator
2.0L brakes with braided brake lines
short shift
15" speedline alloys with nearly new tyres
steinmetz full bodykit
bad boy bonnet
full smoothed boot and petrol cap
irmscher grill
black morette headlights
whole underbody of the car has been undersealed with axle painted green
calipers and rear drums have been painted green

Few bad bits like theres paint flaking on the rear skirt and bumper has a mark on and bonnett is scratched

Went in for mot and failed on a cv boot, handbreak, need a cat,

Plans are to have it resprayed ford white at some point or have the body work touched up
fully stripped caged
when this lump gives up ill be investing in the 2.0 16v

This morning orderd and fitted some parts :
Complete new handbrake setup
Cv gaitors
Braided brake hoses
Red dot brake fluid

Car will be going back in for mot on friday got a few pictures of how it currently stands since getting it back from scotland havnt had a chance to clean it as of yet






few ebay bits i orderd
momo wheel and boss
trying to get hold of a flocked dash
wheel arch clips

soon as paintcode is sorted skirts are getting resprayed along with bonnett and the door chip
morette will be getting sprayed black as they look really dull
