Ok, before I start, I've read the countless debates on the legality of retro fitted xenon headlights to a car that hasn't got washers or auto levellers. Please don't turn this thread into one of those "debates". :p These two features can be & will be fitted at a later date. Right then...

Hi all. I've been floating around here for a while now, making the odd post. I thought i would share a current project of ours... We originally bought this car as a fix up car to use on the road. It had loads of little niggly problems that were annoying and had scruffy bodywork. When we went...

I bought this from ReggieB on here, with a view to making it into a track toy. It had just over 100k on the clock, and looked like this: I very nearly bought one of these when they were new, but my children were young at the time, so we decided a Toledo Sport would be more practical, but...

this is Illy my newest purchase into the household: at some point in the not so distant future she should be a 2l 16v on bike carbs, sporting a freshly refurbed engine bay :) thoughts?
