Let the good times flow... :)
Bought my Mk1 about November time last year.
Payed very little for it so was happy.
A few things done to it when I picked it up.
Lights changed all round.
Lowered on springs.
Full exhaust system.
5 spoke 15's.
Recent respray (not the best job)
Few interior toughes, door pins and mirror adjusters.
Stealth shelf and upgraded speakers all round with Ipod connection.
And the badge somone had stuck on the badgeless grill. :dontknow:
Bought it with just over 63,000 on the clock.
Gave it a good look over when on the ramp and it was MINT underneath actually nothing wrong with it accept the tyres were on the wrong direction.
Got it home and stored it untill February/March time.
Came out and in for it's mot.
Passed first time with no advisorys.
Had a set of D90's and adaptors kicking about so put them on.
Wired up some amber lights where front indicators were and bodged on a mk3 VR6 splitter.
Got some cheep nasty coilovers on and realised I had some scrubbing issues.
So fired on another set of wheels, my babys. OZ 15's 7's and 8's.
Ordered tyres for stretch for more lows.
And the money shots…
I've not got many plans more for the time being, just to sort out the stance.
Money is tight just now so we'll see what happens over time.
I said I wouldn't modify this car… but it's happened.
Planning on keeping it for a long time so keep your eyes peeled.
I'd love an engine conversion, interior re-trim, re-paint etc etc… but we'll see.
Feel free to leave comments. :roll:

More lows, smooth bumper and another set of OZ Exclusives.
Probably it's last update before it gets tucked away for the winter.
need a roller in here too (pre bumper smoothage)
