Although none of you guys have seen it yet, neither have I for a while now. My parents conviscated it when I started my final year of uni, spending too much time with it or something :(
so instead of working on it, and not having to pay tax, MOT or insurance for a year means I've been ammassing lots of goodies for it.
Here goes:
Old manky (and heavy more importantly) seats. BoooOOOOooooo :(

The coil on the engine atm is damaged so when it's wet one of the lead connecotrs gets damp insted the block, and it drops to three if you add anyload to the engine, you can managed abotu 55 ithout it dropping, then idf it does for more than abotu 4secs the ecu shuts doen from the interferance it couses, then you have to restart while coasting, very fun :wink:

I know :cry: But my parents have taken it away and it's locked up in a garage somewhere I can't get to it. Still My dissertation is in this friday and then I can go collect it and start the strip down bit of it. No way I'll have it ready for PV though.
