My grey gsi had this about 5 months now brought it off dan and Luke when they decided to sell Up...ain't really touched it other than have some welding done on chassis leg and n/s sill...other than those bits it's pretty much rust free..I used it a couple of times before the winter and it drives ok felt a bit loose on the steering/front end so going to sort that first all new bushes and suspension parts and hopefully drop on a set of speedlines before the summer...only got the one pic of when I picked it up will update as I go

Undoubtedly the best colour, my old one looked so good when it was freshly painted
Good job you checked the belt out!
Doing any shows this year?

pardon my blasphemy lol
I sold it because i didn't have a garage etc to store it/work on it, the missus was giving me ear-ache about it and i put the money towards a mortgage. It's now in Sunderland. I offered the guy 2.5k to have it back but he declined lol.
