Picked up this last night:







Plans are to tidy it up, a set of nice wheels, fit a nice stainless system and possibly a throaty induction kit.

Then to just enjoy it

Exhaust has came off one of it's mountings (needs a bolt)
Hand Brake adjusting.

Unfortunately it's not as tidy as it looks in those pics. Nothing a good polish wont sort though.

It's going in for 4 Wheel Alignment and a New rear tyre tomorrow at Kwik Fit.

Iv'e topped the oil up because it was low but ill book it in for a full service soon as it's due on 22nd April anyway.

Ill fix the exhaust myself and adjust the hand brake myself at the weekend.

Pow: It being a post March 94 model it has 174bhp so it does move and sounds great up in the high revs.

They feel and handle like go-karts!

Plus, im only 22 so i get lots of attention in it
