My new pride and joy
My new pride and joy
Having got fed up with the Corsa I sold up and purchased something a bit bigger.
I'd like to thank Gaz for helping me pick it up.
Being collected
How she sits in my garage
I have big plans for the car including a 500bhp let, Buckets seats up front, GAZ coilovers and 4 pots all round.
Due to my plans I reckon this will probably take me 18 months or more as funds dictate.

Cheers guys. I've been looking for a good shell for years when this came up. It's the cleanest one I've seen in a long time. The wheels are stunning and immaculate, they're the reason I'm not 5 studding it.
