Mines has been off the road since last october
Nothing wrong with it other than i started taking the dash out to fit a flocked one and then got bored/fed up with it and gave up. Needed to spend cash on my house this year so the car took a back seat!
Dont have any pictures of the sorry state inside but here how looks outside
