Thanks.

Need to sort the bootlid out but apart from that I'm quite happy how it looks at the moment.
Got loads of small blemishes, as expected from a car thats had 17 owners and done 150K miles. But she still looks good.
Got a couple of bits of welding left to be done on the front inner arches and some tiny bits on the sills. But theyre all out of sight :D
My bootlid has a pretty bad paint finish but I can put up with that till it gets painted.

Very very nice. Wheels suit it well.

The only thing that I might change is the steering wheel though, little bit too sporty.
A nice M3 ceccoto one would be nice winkeye

Yeh. I agree the look of the steering wheel doesnt really "fit", but I like it as its suede-so grippy, small and is dished which is useful as it brings it closer to me. (im a short arse :D )

The wheels are borbet A's. :D I think they'd look good on any car from the 80's. You need to lower the car though otherwise wide wheels just look wrong. imo
