Well she passed her MOT the other week after not being used for over a year, with just an advisory about one of the suspension arms (presume a lower) needing rust to be cleaned off (they were replaced a couple of years back so it must be surface rust).. pretty amazing for a 17 year old car! I have a pair of better rear brake discs in the boot as well. As you can see her lovely Nightfire Red Metallic paint shines.
Those of you who have read my posts over the years will know she has had various bits done to her:
1. 16" Square Spokes - were refurbed although little curbing now - still look great
2. TF fornt end - not due to accident damage but to get better lighting! The bumper shade is slightly off but most people don't notice
3. TF Sunstorm grey interior with leather/alcantara seats.
4. Plasma dials
5. 2004 Hood with good rear window
6. Both rear lower sills have been properly repaired with good metal in the typical rust areas
7. Head gasket was replaced by Russell soon after I got her many years ago now!
8. Got her a hard top as the old hood (hence the new one being put on) leaked and let water under the carpet! The hard top paint is horrible but I was going to cover it with vinyl which is cheap as chips - the liner is brand new!
9. Stainless steel underfloor pipes.
10. Replacement radiator.
11. VVC alloy inlet manifold (to stop the dreaded plastic manifold leaks)
12. Larger TF Air box
She is a great old girl... with lots of life left in her. When I took her for her MOT I noticed how much more powerful she is than my 115 TF.... pics below:
I'm looking for £650 without the hardtop or £750 with....
