Well impressed upto now

Need a bit of bodywork doing but everything else is pretty much spot on for a 16 year old motor with 159k

Pulls like a train on the Mway and even gave an R32 a run for his money he left me after 125 though.

Lowered 60mm on Fully adjustable Spax Suspension and the ride is superb with no body roll at all and it sticks to the road like the scoob did! Brakes are all uprated and are awsome too

Just an update!

This car is so impressive still I can see what all the hype is about them.Going to restore it the best i can but maybe get some BBS rims and a nice exhaust on.

Was chasing a AM Vantage around my local B road yesterday and he was skipping all over the road trying to shake me off

Mav it's 1.8 16V mate..bout 140 brake but boy dose it feel quick even compared to the scoob.

Yeah Craig is was all down to the handling really mate as there is only a couple of straights

It was £900

Mav just buy one to thrash around there so much fun! Think the spax adjustables might have somthing to do with my superb handling though
