Is that the one we're doing the gearbox and cambelt kit on?

Looks very smart, shame it's not a bigger engine ;)

Nice, what would really set that off is a set of smoked side repeaters to replace the orange ones, they would become almost invisible and really suit a dark car  :y


have a look in here for examples

I would disagree with that!

Currently my 3.0 Elite Auto esate (same colour as yours) does about the same mpg as my 2.2!!

its reasonable one side has a few scratch marks from where the neighbours kids knocked their scooter/bycle into it but i recon they will polish out.

Both front doors have rust appearing on the bottom corners (noticed it today) as well as the front of the bonnet. other then that there are a couple of small spots else where.

inside is v resonable just need to get some new plastic bits that screw the boot liner in as the dog managed to chew them off! how i dont know???

As far as i know smoked indicator lenses are legal. people pass MOT's with them. Hubby's right about 2.0 being enough for 70mph....but.....it's how quick you get there!!!!!!!!!!! :)
