The car \'looks\' generally ok from the pic\'s.
A good sighn it has the red \'Turbo\' decals on the wings as they are hard to replace, so it may suggest that theyre orig.
Front seems to missing front \'chin/bib\' that the last cars had
fitted.I would be supprised if the car had a new turbo prob.
just checked out at the time of rebuild.
The car will have some rust.
Check the electrics in particular if youre keeping thing stock
like the wipper switch and abs working ok.
All the sun roofs stick dont worry about that its just tuff.
Good to see the orig. wheels.
Oh and look at the exhaust theyre not cheap, and cheap
replacments burn/blow through quite quick.
Almost tempted myself :rollin
Good luck on your search!

Ta chaps...

She\'s not answered me email about going to see it, so I\'ll not be crawling under anything just now by the looks of it! :( Shame, cos it\'s a UK car. Then again I\'d gone off the idea of spending Saturday on the M6 anyway.

It\'ll be a sort of track car ish in a pointless waste of money project car kind of way... but also, it will be a 7, and that\'s the main thing. :)

Should say I\'m looking for one with the stock turbo(s) as well, because I\'ll be tuning for response and handling, not power, in order to better terrify the locals around Rivvy. ;)

Stu, I\'m off on me jollies next week but when I\'m back I\'ll definitely take you up on that offer - was thinking of posting anyway! Ta!

Have to see what autos drive like really... but there\'s nothing as satisfying as heel-and-toe through two gears and coming off the brakes exactly at the turn-in point - can\'t imagine it\'s half as much fun in an auto. Oh, and no OOOSHing between ratios either. :D

I\'ve emailed the Bolton one, and it had a new engine at 60k, he says...

Hi, hows about the convertable in the for sale section on this forum. Think it is Clive that is selling it. Looks pretty good and since it is down at Carls place there would be an expert on hand to help out! My money would go to the convert.
  Now I will be like Grinder and keep out of this thread:D

Get back from holiday and find out that 20-odd posts have been placed "at risk" in my absence... and I\'m one of them! :o

So I\'ll not be buying any new toys at all after all that :(

 Track day already paid for tho ;)

i can only assume that means some jobs at work are at risk ??
