Comin on nicely, good choice on the colour. I was gonny go for coilovers at the rear but didn't like the idea of bangin out the arch. LET nova, that is goin to be a hairy ride when done

I asked about fitting the coilovers on PNG as i thought there was a lot of work needed. But been told its not too bad, most the time they go on ok with no work needed, but sometimes need a wee bit hammer action.

Can't you rent a garage at all? From the council, or another local resident who doesn't use theirs?

Well its back on track, change of plans. But i am now in the middle of buying my own flat, so unfortunatly wont be able to afford running costs of a C20LET for now. So that idea is scrapped untill a year or 2. Not sure what will happen engine wise, good thing is is getting painted start of January.

My thoughts exactly Robin Should still be bloody quick, with the bonus of it still being light for handling aswell.
