Well just picked this up the other day and thought i may aswell start a project thread.
Wont be too much happening as it doesnt really need anything!
Only things planned are:
New windsceen
New front splitter
Need to source some handles for the seats aswell to lift them forward as they both of them have broke 
Maybe some shiney bits under the bonnet... but we will see what happens

Cheers, loving it so far! Not too sure what splitter im going to get yet, the 1 that is on it is tie wrapped on in most places and cracked in the middle due to the car being so low, it catches on all speed bumps so will have to get 1 a bit smaller, maybe laguna

Ah right, it wasn't really up for sale, hadn't advertised it anyway. Just got offered a good deal that i couldn't refuse.
Cheers Jambo, its the interior that really done it for me, it is immaculate and seats heat your cheeks up perfectly on these cold nights!

The seats actually work really well with the colour of the car and blue door cards, that picture doesnt make them look as good as they actually are. Will get a better 1 tomorrow.

And here's what happens when you are surrounded by speed bumps and a car park that has a huge curb at the end of the parking space
So now definately need a new splitter

Really? I thought it was a proper one.
This 1 is tough plastic and was already broke in places, but today it just ripped off
