It's been off the road since the end of 2010
Since getting it back to mine it's just been a case of cleaning bits up and sorting little jobs
It's now Mot'd, I've got a few bits to sort in the advisories which are in progress

Still undecided on the bumpers
May treat them with some bumper gel, or may paint them with textured bumper paint and re satin black metal parts
This was a friends car so I know it's a genuine 85k'er
