    I've had that sledge for 40 years and it's only had one new set of slats, none of that plastic crap here :)
    Father in law's got less to do now he's sold me the Impreza!

    The great thing about posting on here saying you're going to do at least one job per day is that you then have to do at least one job per day.
    limited time today,parents evening and proper work, but cleared the cab out and removed the passenger seat, too dark for photo's by the time i was done :)

    No M plate, ive searched it,there's not many places to hide it in a single cab.
    I want to know which blue it is originally, ie; inside doors/cab blue, not the horrible purple on the outside,
    Swedish birth certificate thing I got just translates as Dark Blue? no code:confused:
     
  20. Looks Neptun to me.
