	Dudes,Liam and myself went and collected the 'SHEDS' new run around,this will be my official 'curse word the chavs off' lil car.A mountain of spares came with the car including a suspect motor.Tomm I will unpack the car (full of spares) and the van (full of spares) and make an inventory of whats there.To be honest,she is a good base,rough around the edges,but has got me in love already.Short term plans are getting her sorted with good safe suspension,a sub '140bhp' brapper motor,MOT and some fun on the strip.As funds dictate I will get her sorted ala 'Alex' style Pretty stoked as I now have a 2 door and a 4 door RX2,what more can a man ask for ?..........maybe more than 140bhp _________________

	Jy praat nie kak nie ne ? Having been in the shed on Tuesday evening for a couple of hours with Oldone, I can say that this is a neat little car, and rare as well. Oh, and Liam makes a very good mug of tea as well. Looks like you are moving fast too. Just stay off ladders now ehh ? (Or else Nicola will come over and donner you right next time)
