off to get my new cabby..

in an hour.
Excited is not the word
will post some pics later to see what you guys think…

nice one!

bet you'll be pulling it about. whats this? look at that.

until something breaks, then you stop for a while.

excellent let us know how you get on

Karlito get some pics of it when your all settled and let us have a look!!!  The drive hope will be ear to ear grinning lol  

and here it is!!!

Well pleased, needs a new relay for indicators and a side trim for wing however it has had a new hood and tires last year and overall its pretty damn straight for 400 notes

It drives really well but seems heavier than my campaign through the corners at the back. Maybe some new shocks will help…











and one of the Campaign looking arty

Love both of those mate… new play thing for the summer GET IN!!!

Love the colour… same as my tin top so I should lol  :wink:

cheers mate, i do rather like silver mk1's

?400 bargain.

?400 I could of bought that instead of the peice of poo pug 106 i just bought   

?400 is about the right price for a cabby these days (there's a lot of overpriced hopefuls out there!), looks ok for the money.

little update, (mods could you move this to the projects pages?)

put it in for its mot and had to change the rear brake hoses. not fun.
Put new copper pipes on and cylinders while i was there.
Banged in a new relay for indicators
put a new rear window rubber as the old one was welll goosed
pumped up the tyres, that sorted out handling :wink:
gave it a full service

Am currently using it every day, have put 200 trouble free miles on it now, not bad for about 500 sheets all in.

Now to sort the body out……….

what do you mean? mines worth alot more than that!


You got a bargain karlito! good job mate!

cheers mate, reckon i did well too, it honestly drives like new, (oh i put a new bush kit into the gear linkage) the interior is absolutely immaculate and the hood is perfect so no leaks (now new rubber is in anyway)

Trying to decide what to do with it now,

do i keep the clipper kit and lower it?

Do i bin the clipper kit and make it look like a convertible Campaign?

do i do a mixture of the above?

Do i do sod all and just get the tracking done?

Tracking first!

Did toy with the idea if putting old style archs and bumpers on my clipper.

lol i too have also had that thought with my clipper but then i see a really nice green one in someones sig lowered on ronal turbos and it just looks mint  

obviously it treated with the care and concern that befits a convertible…..




sort of

that new body kit needs to be blended in a little better than that! i can see the joins

the body kit has to be gone asap!!!!!

Trying to feel the love for it but i really dont like my car very much :cry:

gonna lose the kit and see how i feel. Really miss my campaign, wish i had kept it and told the tax man to get stuffed!!!!

right, took it for a 200 mile spin and am feeling the love a bit more now.. picked up some p slots with tyres for 60 quid but no centre caps.

on way home dropped in to breakers yard and found in an early mk2…… four centre caps and a steering wheel sitting on the seat.

good times, went and payed for em……?10 the lot. 8)

Painted the new grill today and painted the black p slots (why would you do that!!??)

here she is so far
