Arden blue sport has been in the garage for the last 3 months, getting it back next week though, then selling.
LET has been trouble, no one can afford the whole car, so found a buyer for the engine, splitting the rest soon.

All the XSi's seem to go really well as standard. This must be a right blast!

Paid £1k for it, engine was rebuilt 10k ago, loads of service history, excellent runner, and only 3 owners since 1995, plus with it being one of a very few yellow S1s in the country, thought it was worth the price.

Perfect, i was quite surprised at how good the interior was in it. 106k on the shell, but its immaculate. Last owner had it for 8 years, he was pretty gutted to see it go, but he has an evo 8 now, so hes happy

They have a nice interior as standard imo, I recoveredthe door cards in plain black material though, looked a lot better. Seats are really comfy too.

Would love the leather gti interior, but i cant justify £350 for seats.
