Very nice - now what the hell have you done to make your bodywork look so good?

I also have a '91, so no power steering! I was thinking of upgrading the wheel sizes - did you keep to 205's at the front? If not, what is the impact on steering?

It's the pictures as the car has not been cleaned in a month. The front wheels are 215x40x17 the steering is heavy when parking, but fine if you are moving at any speed.

They look good, I notice the rear number plate surround has also been painted, looks different.

The world is coming to you being stupid:D :LOL: :LOL: :D

The original post said it would go on ebay.. I think with a starting price of 8k.

Saying that I havn't seen it on the bay, I would have mortgaged my car to put a bid of 10k on it iof I had! No one in their right mind would let this go for 8k.. even if it was Cat a, b, c & D and a left hooking auto :LOL:

Would they!?

Is that a reference to Lost?


BTW Jim I remember how the wheels looked in the past, no contest! Great effort.

Cheers,

Do you ever bring the car over Hampshire/Surrey direction?

Your car reg looks familiar to me...
