Plan is to get a c16xe for it same as my old 2door loon, full respray in the corsa b gsi colour and turn it into a trackday toy while I have a break from drifting.
That's it for now, lots of over time to do so can buy parts ect

Cheers dude,
It's cleaner than my old loon, the 21000miles looks like it definitely is genuine :-D not that it matters as it will be fully rebuilt haha

Finally got time to start work on the loon, replaced the wing, passanger door and boot lid

Although I think I will put the original wing back on as apart from a dent and surfaced rust it is fine, so it will save patching up the side repeater hole
