Post by: simon15 on May 26, 2007, 14:15:23: got it back this morning and very impressed

for the price its a bargain.

bodywork is pretty good a few rusty bits underneath which i will get done before next mot (Jan 0

everything seems to work apart from the passenger window, most prob off the runners.
and wont unlock passenger or lock the rear drivers but cant complain

a very good purchase i think
