I just don't know what else I have to do to it now, I wanted to do an engine conversion, but I'd wanna declare it and that's just to much insurance

Update time:

Sorry I've not updated in a long time, not really had anything worth updating. But I have now!

First of all i got some new bucket seats pretty cheap and they was brand new!



A few weeks after, I kept thinking i wanted to find a stainless exhaust manifold, came across one on eBay and got it for a steal £50 posted!





Got it fitted straight away. It made quite abit of difference, The car seems to pick up better (I know it's only a 1.2 but it made an improvement)



Now for the most recent purchase, Another set of wheels!





I quickly sent them off for a refurb and colour change, Got them back on Christmas eve but had to wait to get tyres before i could put them on







The colour is dark than the pictures the painter sent me.



Got bored waiting to get tyres so i thought i'd try one on.



And now they have tyres 165/50/15 Nankang NS - II's.





Quite close to the arch but i like the fitment on them.


That's all for now, I'll try and update more frequent now, but i don't think there's much more i can do other than an engine conversion, But i don't want to do one and not declare it to the insurance but if i do i cant get insured ohh well I'll find something i can do i'm sure.
