Your a brave man.

You just wanna do some subtle Mods like I've done to mine:

* Marea Headlights (cheap from a scrapyard)
* Black Side repeater.
* Debadged
* Some new springs,will make it sit better. (this is my next mod)
* A good engine service.

Like the yellow and black contrast.
 
nice bravo mate , very simlar to mine nice to see another broom yellow bravo on here with some pics
 
cheers guys 1st time had our own car in years as got a company car too,will t cut bring up the yellow all over including the bumpers,little bit sun shaded on 1 side too ? any ideas?

Oh Yes!!
T-Cut should be one of the world wonders!
Dont be too limp with it either, give it a good going over then a good waxing.
Get some decent back to black aswell something like simoniz from halfords not too expensive.

Oh one thing make sure you've got a good half day spare for it though. Its a back braker.

Good luck ;)
 
looks alright that mate, could even use back to black, rather than simoniz, but i`d give a good goin over with t-cut, wash it then wax and a polish
gotta ask tho, you said its a 1.7, are sure its not a 1.8 or 1.6, just wonderin as i had a HLX/GT and they only did them as 1.6 or 1.8
if its a 1.8 they`re a great to car to drive in all fairness,
kinda miss mine every now and again,
but doesn`t have the toys my mondy has as standard tbh

Biggest mistake of my car ownership history to date has been the sale of my blue 1.8. Don't miss it anymore but a Brava and a Bravo later, I still missed it.

The Coupe and Stilo more than make up for it :)

To put the thread back on topic, looks like a well kept car you're getting. As mentioned, some tlc on the paint will probably do wonders :)

Welcome back to the fold!
