  2. We can't make BB this year so I won't get to see either
     
  3. That's a Bluestar. And it's the only T3 I'd ever be tempted by. It would have to have a scooby conversion in it though. ;)

    It's a scientific fact* that all the best people have a T4.

    It is a blue star. They did a white star Hanover edition too.
    Have you tried driving a T3 with a 2.1DJ with the cat removed. Super quick and a match for your Scooby at 112bhp. And it's an og lump too.

    I meant 're acceleration and speed for an original engine compared to a conversion.

    I suppose I had better move this to the resto section for a while.

    She arrived yesterday on the back of my buddies trailer and I set about assessing my purchase. She is basically as the seller said. with a slight clutch judder thrown in that he failed to mention. I hope that is from standing.

    I got on with the remedial work on the surface rust on the arches right away. I know it is only a quick repair for now, but I can sort the arches properly in a while now I have got the Kurust and some primer.

    Apart from that list are you happy. Think I'd be a little miffed if there is stuff broken that wasn't mentioned. Depends on how cheap you got it I suppose and if your bothered.

    Not really worried too much. If it's going to be my daily then it needs to be right.
