The white Ti(x??) is gonna be restored, I'm well on the way with that, I've fixed the sunroof that was leaking and sorted other rusty spots out on it as well, it was sold to me as a TiX but I don't think it is, as while it is the correct colour, with the correct graphics down the side, correct wheels and has the sunroof of the TiX, its missing quite a few parts for the TiX, like Foglights, colour coded Grill and Wingmirrors, the black one is one I got for parts for the Ti... it has the same engine and G/B... and I can use a lot of the other parts as well... anything I can't use on it will be flogged and the car will soon be a compact cube... I almost feel guilty for that... hmmm... the black one's bonnet will be going on it as well... anyone think I should make it Rally Slag Style with a nice big set of Cibbies on the front? saves me having to respray the bonnet

well, I was planning to get it back to full TiX spec... but I think I've decided I'm gonna make it look a bit rally slag with black bonnet and a set of cibbies on the front, uprate the suspension when I have some cash, engine well be staying standard apart from maybe some K&N filters

hmmm, I've decided I much prefer the dash on the breaker, its got much more retro style vents than the Ti... pretty sure it won't be a straight fit though... hehe, I'm gonna have a go though
