Will someone please hide my wallet?!
Went online car-hunting after a few shandies, and ended up with this:



The missus is not happy! A lovely Mk1 180, £650. Happy days.

Needs a set of clutch hydraulics (thanks Dark Ice Designs, need to fit it now!) and a few cosmetic imperfections sorting - apart from that, it's bang on.

Need to get rid of the silly cone filter, and decat it next.

A bad mixture! She only knew when I rocked up in it the next day (and yes, we do live together! )
She does like the noise though.

The silver one was sold to a chap in Cumbria - I've not had it for a while now.
Insurance on it was horrendous for some reason - nearly triple the cost of this one. No idea why...

All I can say is, classic insurance well worth it!

Reminds me of when a mate of mine received a set of bagpipes after a few sherberts and a eBay browse!

Nice looking car, love an XPG MK1!

That's what she's on now - for some reason, I couldn't get the last 180 on it. Under £250 now.
