We drove all the way to London today to pick it up. :thumbsup:

Heres the spec..

1275 Metro engine with Stage 1 kit, and stainless exhaust
13" superlites with new Bridgestone rubber
Sportspack arches (although badly fitted)
Walnut dash +sportspack gauges
momo steering wheel
spax shockers
drilled discs with greenstuff pads and braided hoses
adjustable tie bars
Halogen headlights, and ice blue spot lamps
recaro's
aluminium pedals, gear knob, and handles
fire extinguisher
alarm
centre console
alpine components and 6x9's

Will see what more stuff it has tomorrow..!

The car isn't as tidy as my red clubman, needs some welding, it has had lots of filler etc. To make it really nice it will probably need a respray.

My plan is to get it running, then sort out the body work, then get it ready for the MOT. Probably going to be a long project, but should be fun!
