My Bro's new GTE

[chimp007_uk]

Hi All,

well, my Saturday morning started at 6am :wtf: after a hefty night out with Stu (stubs) :roll: felt like sh!t... But anyway, hopped in the nova for a 2.5hour trip to Swanage. Was a bootiful day, and was atleast hoping for a paddle lol

set off at 7.30 and arrived at 10.30 after a trip to the bank only to find it was shut on saturdays... Rang the guy, and luckily he accepted Paypal for the difference.

Picked it up and drove it back :) ended up pulling back in the drive at 2.30pm :cry:

Anyway... Here's the pics. Standard alloys going back on it and replacing the cut parcel shelf, but the interior is mint and has service history up to 79K (2004), 87K (i think now) 12months mot.

It'll be a PVS, hopefully on the stand. My bro can't make it but Stu will be driving it. He's already thinking of selling it, if anyones interested...?!? He thinks he'll trash it if he keeps it (which is a fair comment).

I haven't had a good look yet. Home this weekend, so everything is getting a good going over and standard-ised :) Got all my GTE parts so nothing will be a prob.

Heavy night out? dude you were drinking shandys & lager tops! And then you tried to make me "take one for the team"... just before palming me off with some other nut job.

PVS should be a good-un, I'm gonna try and get a case of Old Rosie :tard:
