I got them new off Aron on here, I never intended on having them but were too cheap to turn down, even more so being new!

Errrm, New backbox soon, couple of adjustments on the PAS setup, other than that, and eventually sorting tints/the boot, nothing much.

Its not far off how i want to keep it. Its not worth spending millions on. Maybe next year il do a conversion on it

In my opinion it needs the stickers/badges to go, the bootlock surround colour coding and smoothing completely and some fresh plates. Otherwise looking very good

Plan to keep the black bumpers and stuff, not a fan of colour coded stuff in this colour.

The stickers and shit are all to hide the missing paint. If i could get a decent paint match i have a semi smooth boot to go on. The plates look rubbish because the car is dirty.

Turned around with the exhaust and i now love the sound Still not a fan of the tip but meh.

It hasnt changed looks wise but i got a pic of it the other day after cleaning it.


I changed the backbox to a scorpion one, but didnt like it, so magnex is back on now, Prefered the tip though.


Not many other things have changed on this car but i finally found a GSi Leather steering wheel. Now il admit its not the best cond, but for £27 i couldnt turn it down. Even in its poor cond, it feels MUCH nicer than the old rubber Nova GSi wheel.


Got a couple of other things in the pipeline too

Comments please

Still off the road, prob going to stay like that until the new year. Nothing stopping me putting it back on the road other than i cba, prefer the sport power/driving etc.

I haven't really done anything worth mentioning, changed the rear slave cylinder that i had been putting off for months.

Nicked the ariel off this for my sport, so bought a new base, with the seal, which was broken before.

Part number is visible there for anybody that wants one, comes with the seal that isn't available separately, About £33 without any discount iirc. Not fitted it yet, too much snow.

Couple of other little jobs to do on it, when it stops snowing.

Preety pointless update but I'm bored.
