glad i held out for a 3DR in a colour i actually liked.

worth every penny of £750 i reckon, full years tax and test, just serviced in july with 4 new Pirelli's & tracking & new battery.

jobs to do include the pretty much standard stuff:

CC mirrors/door handles.
Remove bump strips.
fit my RCL locking kit i bought years ago for my MK2b.
Focus Ind. kit.
That's a good find! You gonna get some alloys for it and lowering etc or you just gonna keep it kinda standard and just bits and bobs?
That's a really nice colour too, not sure if I've seen a mk2 with that colour before but it's nice and shiny! :D

cheers mate! :) yeah i will be getting some alloys, planning on getting some cheap sporting ones in need of a refurb, refurbing them myself in black(y)
then a 30/50 drop perhaps
 
thanks for the kind words everyone! just realised the back end looks really orange in the 2nd pic but the sun was super bright and it's actually normal.

got some pretty cool ideas for the car i wont reveal just yet (y)

oh and these sporting alloys :p

You bought them already?
Would looks nice refurbed in black with red abarth centre caps IMO (y)
 
nahh i did have them lined up to buy but with getting my last punto stolen and everything else i've probably missed out on 'em, read my mind on the red caps :p:D
Well depending on if/when i get my new alloys il let you know if im gonna sell my sporting alloys if you want? if you havnt already got some that is.
Hell yeah that will look the dogs swingers lol
 
are they the original textured bumpers sprayed red?

u can get replica bumpers which are cheaper to mass produce and so insurance companys rather use them instead of originals...they are the same one smooth texture (like the colour coded bits of the originals) across the whole bumper so the whole bumper is nice and ready to be sprayed one colour rather than annoying masking off sections :)

probly has had the bumper replaced because of some sort of an accident maybe minor.
 
Tidy!

That is all. ;)


Cracking deal for £750. Not a fan of the bright red myself, not Metallic enough for my liking.


Glad you had some sort of luck after all those things that happened to you.
Plans sound great. (y)

yeah thanks, something good come out of it i guess (y)
 
I'm glad I don't have you luck with cars.

Looks good sure it'll be fixed up and i'll see it about once the weather lets up.

lol I don't do too bad, the only car I've actually not turned a profit on was my first punto, had it for 3 trouble free years lost 300 quid :p

tbf to this punto I've done a lot of miles since buying all over the country with work, guess you could say it's expected on puntos :D
