Great car and awesome mods too. It will be a bargain whatever you paid, because it would cost a buttload to build a car to that spec.

I hope you enjoy many happy miles of motoring in it!

Unfortunately not.

Looking at a couple of options at the moment as a replacement, but in no rush as i've bought a Clio 182 as a runaround car.
