Was starting to think ive spent so much on my car but most of it has been mechanical imperfections where as I havent spent much car on the exterior, however looking at old photos im surprised at how much better my car is looking since I got it. Alot of people on the Rallye Register are saying I could expect to fetch something above £1.5 which is near double what I paid.

Before...







and these were taken on friday night...





Really pleased with that

Well most of them are experienced in buying and selling and the market for rallyes seems to very soo much, they go from like nothing to about £2.5 for a mint s1.

I had a race with one of these on Saturday night when I was in the Nova, first race since the new engine, they were equal, I think top end I would have the edge.

Was fun race though.
