    So a faded 5 door hatch with a tow bar? That's worth 200 quid.

    Sure there isn't anything else about you could have as a project?

    What's the plan then?

    Genuinely look forward to seeing what you do here. Proper rags to riches affair?

    It's a frowback to my yoof and carefree days when any form of transport was pure freedom as it got you away from the fam with mates. My 2nd car was a 1.6 driver just like this.

    First parts purchased - an OEM roof rack complete.

    Purchased as the boots are smaller than I remember them being 21yrs ago when I had mine!

    Can anyone say SCENE?! lol
