Peter, could you tell me what happened to the silver Gsi as i used to own this many years ago (5+), i had the digital dash put in it, respray, the bonnet done wheels etc. If i remember correctly i sold it to some young lad in north london, and just wonder if you know what happened to it?

I've been coming on this forum for a while but had to register and reply to this thread when i see me old motor.
