Newbie going back old skool

Hi all. Newby here and to Seat in general. Decided to get off the treadmill of car finance and leave the general turgid feeling of new cars behind and go old skool. Used to do a bit of rallying in my youth and fancied something sprightly and fun on a budget

Bit of bodywork to tidy up and a wheel refurb to do but other than that I'm loving the driving experience so far

57 Plate 5 door 1.4 16v Formula 100 in black

Jobs to do
Paintwork on both front doors as previous owner didn't know how to look for his gateposts
Wheels - need a proper refurb as he obviously had same issue with kerbs
Side repeaters - see above. Passenger side cover missing. Have a pair of smoked LED ones on order
Light clusters - need a good polish as they are a bit cloudy
Washer jets not working - split pipe so water all coming out at the side of the bonnet rather than the jets. Temp fix completed using some wrap fix
New head unit - just cos I want bluetooth and hands free
Front cup holder - needs replacing as it's broken
