Moz will probably sell it soon, he's started fitting audio gear to it. By his own admission, it always happens.
It's definitely a keeper though. It's a really nice clean car.

Thats exceptionally clean and almost a clone of my car! Puts mine to shame though, but guess thats what 12 years on British roads does...
Sure its not a V6 with that splitter?

It's defo not a V6 I've checked
Thanks for all the comments
Well after much thought I'm defo selling up
I just don't use the car enough to justify keeping it, I spend more time in the other half's yaris doing the school run ect so I'm going to sell my car and the yaris and get something a bit sensible we can both use.
I'll miss it but it has to be done
