I agree, makes a big difference to the look of the car by losing the orange, minimum cost aswell...

Nice car though buddy!!!

A later classic but you get the idea... repeaters, indictors & bulbs will set you back no more than about £60



also got the crystal sidelights now but haven't taken a pic of those since...

and my 10p worth is to lose the pink STI decals on the fog lamp covers and replace it with silver ones.

Question

Hi peeps, cheers for replies, got clear repeaters already but no phots as yet and if i keep the car (fate is deciding at mo well ebay ) ill do the indicators too, i like the idea of silver STI badges.

If it doesnt sell it'll be laid up for a while and ill slowly do it up, the Grand scheme will be :-

2.5 conversion
Front mount intercooler
decent 4 pots and upgrade the rears
colour coding and poss blow over but the same colour
Sensible lip spoiler
poss Gems or similar ecu to bring it all together

Only trying to sell because i begrudge driving it to aldershot from Bodmin every week loading mileage on and worry about all the what ifs with stuff wearing out etc 93k at mo -£300 ish on fuel and loadsa mileage yes its a thrilling drive too.

so options are Garage it and do up slowly (out of Army in 5yrs so a lil bit of money coming then for the biggy ie engine/ecu) and use my corsa but insure scoob for storage only.

or

Sell it bank the money and wait 5 yrs aswell as save a bit and by another classic and transform it - keep looking at Type R's price will be sensible then but heard some tails about them not being as stable as the 4 doors and a bit skittish and tail happy so any views on the above???

PS Dont want to buy a newage i personally prefer the classic look even though a newer car is safer, better built etc

so comments/suggestion please
