    nahh not all on welding! sod that for a laugh ide soon tell em to do one and get my friend to do it, but as i get discount at the garage over the road (perks of dealing with their business rates hehe)

    Im throwing it to them to sort, Dont expect all to go on welding, im expecting around 200-300 on welding, new breaks, cv boot/joint, and a little bit of wireing to be sorted out as my full beams dont work, and washer jets sorted out.

    Be shocked if theres any left over. Then be going towards a respray

    already had two dodgy ones done loL! figured its time to have a propper one and pay just like every one else and have a reletivly safe car for once.

    Just sold my vitara so figured instead of getting another crap shed ill throw money in to my nova and get that back on the road as love it!

    Save your money and scrap it IMHO...for not much more than 800 you could get yourself a half decent reliable car

    *sigh* irony, yet many of us have spent over £2k to have work done and put bigger engines in, the car was reliable but i drove it like a pleb and broke it, Plan has always been fix what i broke. And make it a nice car. But guess people dont have projects any more :P
