Really sad to see this actually. I sold it a month ago and the guy had the cheek to call it a shed. The tool didnt even come down to see it. Its really sad to see my first car that i put alot of time and effort into being broken. loved that car to bit and actually had a tear in my eye when that went. very special car. what a *****

Oh well least i can just look outside at my new project. My new daily drifter s15 had it 4months now and this is how it sits after aload of engine mods, referbed wheels and a roof spoiler. 0-60 in 4.5secs so its a feck lot quicker than the leon lol will be getting some more stance treatment this week.

What El said really, that is a great shame as that was a seriously sweet looking MK1 IMO :(

Still, new project mate you've got to just look forward when it comes to things like that.

Loving the new ride, looks sweet. Got a soft spot for these so will keep an eye on the thread :D
