Hello all I'm new here!!! ;D just bought myself a kp61 as the heading says. Its a 1.3L 4k, nice bit a poke out of her. i have wanted one for ages now, so I'm very happy wit it... it needs a respray, but wit funds and all that it probly wont happen for a lil while. i have a few plans for it all right... I'm going for the slammed J look.....anywho have a look at some of the pics for the meanwhile    |

This is a really cool car! I don't think we ever got them in Australia and I've never seen an import one either but wow, just looking at the photos makes me want to get in and yank the handbrake! Is this the shortest wheelbase RWD J car ever made?
