good goin al`, feel the phase 1 love, i may have to do my carpet after seeing that..:), lookin forward to seein it...:D

Woohooo :) can't wait :D cars looking great mate.

Nice to see you still have it. Well done :)

did the phase 1 cars all only have a drivers adjustable wing mirror ? , seem to remember my mates one many years ago having an adjustable one passenger side but like most it had been modded before he got it so may have been an addition

Yeah all the early ones were drivers side only...Some of the later D plate cars had them fitted to both sides.....The old skool N/S mirror is a funny loolong thing ! :D

Cricky that engine bay is clean- proper put mine to shame!

Love it! Nice to see your takin good care of her;) As an oe set up it appears still, how much boost are you running? Have you done many miles and stretched her legs a few times since having her and alls well?

Yes still totally standard, including boost. Its not done hardly any miles since I had it, I went for a day out around north Wales with gibbo last year, then took it out on boxing day because it was a nice day, other than that it hasnt stopped raining. It's probably done about 200 miles in total.

Coolio:cool: I love a good modded five as much as an oe one, however i'm so chuft that this has stayed an oe one and it's in good hands. Nice work mate:agree:

I have a tungy 5 as well, with bigger booost etc, so the way i see it is theres no point putting unnessesary miles on the red one, i can just keep it for days out and meets things like that.
Glad you like anyway:agree:

So after all the welding was sorted out (thanks Haz), we decided to use the little red car on our wedding day, Its way cooler than any rolls or bently anyway:agree:

I thought I handed what I had over to the club when I sold it but I was moving house at the time. Nothing has popped up since but Ill keep an eye out.

Ive got pics from when we rebuilt the carb and my for sale pics which turned out pretty good. I try and look some stuff out for you - may have some other ones too.

Congrats on the wedding:agree:
