Yes that was me in Practical classics. Supprised me actually cos i didnt hear anything back from them so thought it wouldnt be fetured and then next issue……there it was!! :D

The car was on a set of Eta Beta BBS style alloys(Which are for sale if anyone is interested!)but i have since put them back to the factory fit standard's as i like my cars as original as possible….not sure if it was me at Xscape as im not down there much and i think there is another red tin top from Pontefract around so might have been that one :dontknow:

fezza yeh thats it mate. hav never noticed it as its hiden behind railngs but been there a while. im guna go enquire next week check it out but luks tidy dont u think. part from a suspect clip on exhaust.
parantly been stripped and welded so will prob be a project but worth an ask. i work behind the pug garage so my mk1 isnt on view to main road. do u live and work locally then fez?

what did u think to it or did u just drive past and get a quick view?

methley road is long road conecting 3 lane ends to cas centre
