Cheers lads, Ecka i should have showed you it when you were picking up the C16.

Coughtrie, been too busy driving it, but i shall post more ass pics once i've been for my back sack and crack wax
I've covered about 300 miles in it now with no hassles, tax is up now so going to sorn it for a month and tidy up a few bits that i'm not happy with.
May well put it in the garage for winter actually and get down to serious business.

It will make some mobility car for the new owner. Still think the Austin Mestro your swapping it with is worth well more than your car and £1900.

Getting a crackin' deal boyo
