I NOW LIVE UPTO MY SIGN IN NAME :lol:

just picked her up-Ԛ£300 nicker :D

gotta sort out the winscreen washer (its empty) change the oil, and put on a new set of handbrake shoes (if they dont adjust out)

Underneath, its super solid (jacking points and everything :mad: )

new tyres just on it, on bbs-looks da bomb :rock:

has the usual leaky boot, but had all the linings out, and no rust to see-well chuffed!

the 2.0 is plenty fast for me at the moment, and it makes the right noises!

boss is well pissed as driving a focus :screwy:

unfort mr insurance man frowns upon such things if you have no NCB!

will obv be looking at some subtle things -fibreglass bonnet and wings to lighten it, and a bit of fiddling under the hood
