This beaut! Has been handed round a few times in the last 6 months, but it's staying with me now and having what it's needed for a while...IDA style! Saving for the engine now, so hopefully end of next year Cheesy

I think Pete realised how excited I was with the 12:30am Phone call to Funkenblitz last night :lol:

Here are some pics from when Lofty owned it...

Thanks Grin It was possible you saw it at DD1, I think it was Lofty who owned it then! - He takes credit for pretty much all the styling choices.

Dezz has been down , and we gave the sides of the car the flat and polish treatment , as they were a bit ' peely ' , much better .

He's like a dog with two dicks , and i can't blame him , lovely car to start off with :cool:
