The car has had 4 former keepers, done 51k and in imaculate condition inside and out. I have been the owner for the last two years. I have dry stored it all the time, only seen the rain once on the feature day. Every wearable component on the car has been repleced or uprated. Lots and lots of reciepts for so many items. Oil and filter changes less than every 500 miles, helped by me getting a large discount at the local vauxhall garage. I have tried to keep the car as standard looking as possible and make it perform well. As you can imagine it does perform well. This year the car went to the Nurburgring and did a 9 min 40 sec lap with me only been around the track 4 times. Here is the spec and some pictures of the car below.
