Right well its home so over the weekend i washed and loished and took some photos. Needs a good service as the car is running a little rough and lumpy on tickover. Apart from that and a few blemishes in the paint is fantastic. Any way pictures to follow

UPDATE:- 18/10/2007

Well the Arch was fixed no problem and shall put picys up when i can. Any way on to bigger problems.

Car was playing up on Mon so took it to my mates garage. Was only firing on 3 so compression tested and thewas 200lbs on cylinders 1,3,4 and varied on cylinder 2.

Took the head off to find Insulation tape at the side of cylinder 2, origionally thought this was problem so removed it sent the head to be skimmed and pressure tested when they phoned back and said they have found 2 Bent Valves in cylinder 2.

So as we speak it is having 4 new valves then head skimmed all new gaskets full cambelt kit (tensioners, rollers and what ever else) new oil filter new oil and new fluid. Then i should get it back.

Nice car mate, how hard is it going to be too fit the central locking and electric windows as I am wanting to do this to my Corsa, my old SRi had central locking but I couldn't be bothered to get it out of the car.
