Top grammar tips! Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

If it were mine (and GOD how I wish it was), I'd be thinking about losing the reflective XR3 in-betweeny-light thingy... I think... I haven't decided if I like them yet or not... Excellent purchase!

WOW thats awsome, and those wheels rock big time. Whats the plans for it? i might need longer to think but as far as i can see it needs gentle lowering (35mm ish) and enjoying. Hard to improve on without going silly. I suppose s1 RST lump would be nice!

haha, looks like the rear panel will have to stay! street, as far as i know, the interior is actually minter (is that a word?) than the outside!
