She has been in a barn for 17 years. Needless to say I left a deposit and arranged to pick it up the following week.

Also fitted new coilovers, removed the 90's eyebrow spoiler, and replaced the missing chin spoiler.

17 year old brake fluid and old rubber brake hoses, I bet that was interesting to drive or should I say stop!
I'm not a fan of the BBS wheels, the middle sticks out to far, I much prefer the original type of wheels fitted or even the bottle tops which came with the car.

I paid quite alot for the car, but its so solid it was worth it in my eyes, including the story to go with it.
