Picked this up at car auctions for much cheapness. Its 1.4 Sport, a 97 with 86,000 on the clock.

Needed tidied up a bit, just some tlc! Lowered it 60mm on nova springs and shocks (gmax ), cavy sri wheels, smoked repeaters. Got a facelift bumper to go on, and some smoked headlights which i found impossible to fit myself

All i could afford to do at the mo as i lost my job

Dont have any before pics but it wasnt a pretty sight! Big improvement!
