Well, today has been a good day

Leicester Tigers won, Leicester City won and I went on a road trip with my hubby and brought home a new toy!

First car we viewed, which may turn out to be a bad thing, but to be honest, I think we did ok.

Now it's time to make a list of what needs doing!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
It's a 1995 Turbo T Bar in what I think may be Steel Mist Grey, with lighter silver spoiler, wing mirrors and belt line.

Pretty much standard, with just after market alloys and Dastek Unichip and turbo module fitted by Millway Coachworks in 2004.

List of things to do
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(so far
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- important bits):
Buy a cover
Trip to Pacific Works
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(or other garage if anyone can recommend one near Leicester) for: Cam belt change, new clutch, wheels balanced
Rear of rear wheel arch welding
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(Small hole)
Fill sills with waxoil
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(they've already been replaced)
Fix central locking

- locking driver's door doesn't lock passenger, but does work the other way around.

Buy new alarm fob
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- one I have has just about had it.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

ICE install

- currently still has original Japanese system
New aerial
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- maybe fix original or replace with something else
May have to replace suspension before January
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- current suspension is corroded and has been an advisory for a few years now on MOTs and that's when it's next due
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Longer term bits:
Repaint lower lip and belt line of front bumper to lighter silver to match wing mirrors and spoiler as per standard.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Fix scuffs on roof and tiny bubbles on bonnet
Brake upgrade
replace alloy wheels
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Possible:
Full colour change respray and body kit
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- was one of the things I wanted to do to any MR2 I bought although currently I quite like the stock look of this car so may not do this
Engine mods
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
- still be be researched
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
All in all I'm a very happy bunny
