Drives very well, needs over the next few weeks/months:

A good service
Exhaust - a wee bit welding
Fuel gauge very dodgy - reads full all of the time unless I floor it then it moves down slightly.
Brakes - Need a good clean up.
Need to establish if timing belts have been done as no record of this on paper, belt looks OK but may change as a precaution.
A bit of TLC


Plenty to keep me busy for now...

Welcome, looks like a tidy example. :-)

I would look at getting the lower splitter on the front bumper, makes a world of difference to the look.

defo agree with the lower splitter on the front bumper, i thought that was part of the 180 kit ???
