but before i got rid i made sure i had something to replace her with....so here she is its i 1.2i for now.

new engine is waiting to go in. it is a 99% rust free shell one of the cleanest one seen. the only problem with it is it needs a new slam panel as it has been bumped but that is already on its way....

i kept all the decent bits mate. i wuld have kept things like the doors but they wernt worth it. They were in tht much of a state i dont think anyone could have found a use for them. As for windows i would have kept them to but im a little short on space

i no!! :evil: :evil:
if space hadnt of been an issue then i would have kept the whole car and get it back up to a good standard and then sold it!

its such a shame when u cant have your own way :evil: :x
