Funny you should say that.........the pics there are from after I had sold the car. the only things the new owner changed were the rear lights and the wheels. When I had it, the car was on 16" Speedlines and standard rear clusters. 
 
More pics here - http://homepage.ntlworld.com/kieran.mcmutrie/Gallery.htm 
 
Does anyone have any other pics of it? It must have been 3-4 years since I sold it?

Beardy did phone me actually about 6 months ago askin about the box that was in it. He must have been doing some work on her then!

Has it been modified any more? Didnt think it would still be running to be honest! It got some "use" that poor car did!

yes its still about stu! 
 
I had it after you for about 8months then sold it to kieran, he has still got it!! Its been off road since last octoberish. Beardy had it and the gearbox went when he was doing some work on it, he has given it back to kieran but its still not on the road, he keeps saying he will come and sort it but has let him down countless times!!!!!!!!!! 
 
everything is sorted apart from the gearbox it wont go into 1st or 2nd! 
 
he has put wilwoods on it but nothing else,

Ah right, I see! Tell him to just get a recon F20 and change it on his drive!   
 
I reckon that car has been off the road more than it has been on y'know!

That sounds like the gear linkage! Bit of a pain in the ass!

Hmmmm, about 5 years since I bought that so Im not sure? Rieger RS rings a bell but I may be wrong? I remember I had to cut it and fit it to the original bumper?
