    Re: what you doin at the weekend

    Moving stuff about to make room for more stuff
    I need to get this started so I can unblock the drive and garage

    Then I can get rid of this and make room for something to go in its place .
    image1-8.jpg
    Then I have to shift this lot to the right so I can get another up the drive and into the dry ....Luckily JIL is balanced nicely on a bread trolley now so it just rolls about

    Then put them all back together

    Re: what you doin at the weekend

    Apart from spending time with the Mrs and my 4 kids I am hopefully going to have a play with the 5 after lowering her I am having some sidey scrappage problems so need to look into raising the side exit centre box. So will hopefully be spending a few hours under the 5 and also putting some stronger / shorter coilover springs on the spax RSX shocks aswell.

    I Have a side skirt to put back on

    Interior to put back in

    A few shiney new parts to fit.

    A good wash will do no harm if the weather holds.

    Then go and earn some more wonga so I can get my self a shiney stainless downpipe and a wideband kit.

    You won the other gearbox then for 99p, was a bit far for me to travel, I won a gearbox for 99p that day as well and it was only 7.5miles away from my house

    Hopefully weather permitting removing the konis off the raider, and a bit of decorating, thats if can find the paint .

    Re: what you doin at the weekend

    I might do something about having no engine in my car at the moment...

    Could become the owner of a pristine white extra van, been stalking the owner for a while

    Might go to Beaverbrooks and buy this Tag watch Ive been eyeing up ...

    Or I might spend the entire weekend being a bigger kid than my 3 yr old

Woke up with a massive hangover to watch the Bournemouth rallly, some imense cars grp 4 escorts, metro 6r4, wrc focus etc. Watched england get beat by Ireland, what a load of tosh. Stayed out all night and got smashed again in town. Just came back from lunch with family and getting smashed again watching the football. Love it

    Sorry Alastair ,only just noticed your question .
    5k will get you a very good one ,3k for a reasonable one with MOT . Beware though ,a bargain can soon turn into an extra 2/3k in the blink of an eye .
    They suffer from rot in the wrong places and a clutch is £1000 fitted as the subframe needs dropping ...if you go to the usual suspects
    Main issue is the lack of parts and prices to suit .Body panels are cheap secondhand but a lot of the wear and tear bits are GTA specific ..£110 for a track rod end ...£100 each for rear suspension bushes and there are 12 needed

    They are a bargain though if you get a good one and there is always someone that knows what to look out for
