He kept it for a couple of years then sold it to a local 16 year old (with rich parents) for a staggering ?4500 - the kid then passed his test and promptly messed it right up - nudges, scratches, dents, kerbed alloys, exhaust ripped off and left hanging, broken headlight etc etc etc..............
Probably ended up either being scrapped, wrapped around a lamppost or hopefully brought by someone and rebuilt - but I doubt it very much!!
:roll:
I drove to Bedford in 1995 for Pete Neal to fit a unique splitter and some subtle grey Coutenay graphics to my white 1.2 GSI looker. He did a spot on job and only charged me ?40 for the splitter, fitting, and the graphics.. He was a nice guy. Then he started hanging around with Maff Searle and the other PNG big-knobs and a couple of years later started charging ?120 for the splitter!!!! I know a lot of people fell out with him after that...
Good looking car though!!!
