Looks like a real bargain.

 hi foot,  you have been done mate,, theres no front lip spoiler 

what a little cracker, makes me want to offer you £600 for her    what did that sketch  in the monti python film say,, YOU LUCKY, LUCKY b---------- WELL DONE TO YOU

 Chirst that is a good price for that by the looks of things!!

Looks nice and clean, any issues?

from the outside that looks a corker! nice one on getting it at such a good price! i suppose you're timing was as good as it could be, with it being freezing!

That is a bargain, Low miles, Boot spoiler, Nardi steering wheel, hoops and bbs wheels for £535! plus in Black

 Mike Brewer needs some training off you by the looks of it!

Cheers Charles

 Nice bargin, and does not look like it as been messed around with, (nearly standard), good result

M-m

Thanks guys, it's always warming when your pride and joy is complimented! I'm still on the fence whether to 'mod' it up or go standard. I understand the spoiler is standard as is the engine brace thing (why yellow though?!), the BBS wheels are a pain but look nice.

MazdaMender (or anyone), out of interest what would 'standardise' my car again? The front number plate plinth is off (gonna buy a new one), but apart from that and the gear nob what else should be changed back? Oh and the CD player of course!! The air vents have chrome bits on (added I assume?!). What about the tear drop door speaker surrounds? Standard or not? And the roll bars???

Cheers....

 Great looking motor. Bargin

Nice car mate -real bargain- what are the sills and arches like? Although I think it struggles against that magnificent Corsa......

Car looks great !! I'm looking forward to getting a proper look in the light .... it was a bit dark the last time I saw you.
Hopefully you'll be able to make it along to the next meet.  

Ace looking car! Lovely standard one....

Looks lovely as it is (or 'mod' it up). I think either way a good "1" looks good.

Straighten up those headlight covers though! Lift the bonnet and a little tweak on the rear edge to bring them in line with the bonnet.
