Had no intension of doing anything to it. But I cleaned it up today and it's I'm really good condition bar the door and rear quarter.

Best colour. Also you know they're not standard rear lights?

Edit - inb4 needs lowering.

Yeh but I've got the standard ones.
Anybody want the tinted ones??
Yeah maybe 40mm.

You should remove the rear card and see if you can kick the dent out if it isn't creased, bargain though!

Yeah it needs a new door too and the lower arch trim thing but the dent looks like it can be repaired, for now by me! Gonna have a go later. Keep you posted.

You can pick up a door for cheap, then as cheffjizz says, it would fairly easy to get that dint out. The interior panel on the rear quarter just pops off, then they'll be a soundproofing rag in there but you should be able to push it out fairly easy I reckon.

When's it booked in for the MOT? Looks to be a bargain so far.

easiest way to do it is to remove the rear bench, undo the seat belt bolt under the bench, open the rear window, pull the weather strip off the top of the car and then it'll pull off, oh and you might have to remove the rear parcel shelf pastic to make lfie easier
