cheers lads means a lot,
im not overly happy with the doors,

passenger door lock hole has been previously damaged and repaired

ive won 2 doors on ebay just need to collect them:)

also im having all the front repaneled as ive done it all myself and im not very happy with my job:roll: should have got a pro to do this instead of being to positive and thinking i could get it a1

oooohh mike you tease,fire em up!
this has done 63k though sadly i have no history to back it up only the original clocks that came with it as the car was broke for spares in 1994 and everything sold on,then i bought the shell in 2008 and sourced parts i needed,
thoug looking at the shell condition it seems correct,

17k must be a pearler thats one of the lowest ive heard of,my mates has done 56k

my mate johns car we bought last month here on these pics with my audi poking its nose in behind lol

to everyone elso it may do spud but to me it doesnt,its the wrong attitude to have i know but unless i get it sorted i will never be truly happy,

i guess many people feel the same about there pride and joys,
all my other cars ive owned ive had the attitude "be right" like the cav i never really was that bothered about i but wanted it tidy looking,nothing wrong with the cav by all means it was a cracker of a car and one of the best saloon td shells i looked at and still is well better than when i owned it now jack has give it some love

just when i look at it all i see is the negative instead of the positive lol
