Long term plans ,not to crash it
Got some leather seats coming soon. No major mods planed to start with but you never know.
Mostly going to tidy up a few bits and bobs, maybe get some different wheels that are a bit wider at the back and I prefer the look of the twin exit exhausts so might change that next summer.
Other than that just plan to drive it and overtake as many cars as possible

Ive fiddled with the interior switch and no joy. I`ll have to have a proper look when it comes back from the garage .

I`ll give classic car a ring tomorrow , waiting on a quote back from Graham Sykes , already tried Sky but that was £750 so I`m hoping to get that down abit . Im 39, 4 years no claims , 3 other cars, No accidents or points so I think it should be a fair bit less than £750 . Im only paying £300 on my seat cupra but they won`t cover imports

Ps , whats the engine code for a rev3 / 4 engine . My garage can`t find what cambelt kit to order as my cars not coming up on his dvla list yet .

Where you at Mr Beans ? I`m just off jct 30 . Would be good to meet up sometime when I get on the road

[Magic Beans]

I'm about 10 minutes from J28 and J29. We'll arrange something then for when you're rolling and the roads aren't covered in salt

I pm`d Peter about 3 week ago to get it booked in for the cambelt and service . Got no reply unfortunately My local garage is good though but I would have liked to get an mr2 specialist to give it the first service / inspection .
Sent it in for a money no object service to make sure its 100% before I take it out .

[craig]

sbits Highly recommended, Phil (Magic Beans) will agree, as do many others on here.

Best way is to call, leave voicemail mate.

[Nick]

I searched for a website / contact details and couldn`t find anything . I`ll give him a try again on the next job
