Preferred the original wheels myself but it looks like a good finish considering painting outside etc.

What's next?

I'm selling my daily driver. This car has been nothing but great to me, and if you've been following the project thread on here you'll know exactly how faultless it's been. It's been perfect! I use this car every single day to get me to and from work, and I can't stress enough it's a shame to sell it.

It's a 1.6, it's covered 138,000 miles. I think we'll all agree that's a lot. However, it's rot free and it's mot only a few weeks ago backs that up. It starts every time and still drives lovely!
It has been lowered 60mm and has 4 tyres on that have done less than 1000 miles! It has uprated shock absorbers and a bigger bore exhaust fitted too!
It comes with 11 months mot, and 6 months tax on it. I also bought a full set of alloys to fit the new tyres to, and I think it now looks great.
As it's the sport model it has all the extra goodies such as electric windows, central locking and electric mirrors! It also has air conditioning, but I think this needs to be topped up as it has never worked for me!

Car comes with a sunroof, and overall the paint and body work is very good! Just see in the pictures! There is a few marks on the wing mirror which I have pictured.

The mot a month ago failed on two things.
Emissions - fixed with a new lambda sensor
Rear brake imbalance - the garage adjusted the brakes.
THATS IT!!!

It really is! I've seen lots of b's and this is cleaner underneath than my green one.
It's solid everywhere!

Actually quite sad I'm selling it.
