Hi Bandit, welcome to the mad house.
Great looking car you got there and a bargain price to, cant be bad.
Sterling nikki is a great set-up but will take a bit of getting used to, great if you are thrashing round all the time, not so good for sitting in slow moving traffic.
So get the sterling and thrash around :chat

RB the thing is a Sterling will cost you almost as much as the car, I\'d fix the one you have, as when you get into this rotary thing you may want to add a turbo ........

Like the reggo of the red VW bandit - did you sell it onto a Phone Company ? Must have been worth a mint or at least a Sterling Nikki !
Failing that you could have sold it onto an ex England football manager.

Congrats on getting goldie back safe Cliff-someone should\'ve confiscated the rattlecan from the PO though!

Isn\'t this always the problem with rattle cans - give some people a can and they just have to empty it, doesn\'t matter if its not required but they just have to finish the can off.

I\'ll try and go through the spare bits tomorrow and see if anything special can be found - such as an electric aerial (I\'ve not a total list of parts but up to now it would seem that I have spare seats [front & rear] in black cloth with red stripe, door cards).

Lol!Hey,that was a metallic hot pink shell when I started!I think it turned out great(better than hot pink anyway)
It only took 8 cans of ulta flat camo green and yes,I emptied them all.:rollin  
I\'ll be posting better pics of the rx7 tomarrow so you all can see what I\'m starting with.Not going to rattle can it,don\'t worry.
