Have you checked for rust behind the rear wheels on the boot floor and under the ecu?

Yeah grill is disgusting, going to make it bumper colour. Was going to do body colour but if you spray something body colour it never looks right.

I quite like the stock look to be quite honest, might do them a shade between stock and gun metal. I need to replace discs, pads and all tyres before I get round to any cosmetic changes though. Oh, and fit my sub and component speakers from my old car. Going to also replace the cambelt for good measure (when i get more car experience though).

Yeah rust free on arches, boot floor and under ecu. When I took it into a local garage a guy who owned a Turbo VTS said it was a very nice example.

Going to do my first job on it in a few days which is replace the anti roll bar links, I'm trying to get into mechanics and never attempted this, is it difficult? Guy at the shop said if you wanna get into mechanics it's an easy job, just two bolts right? Anything to be wary of?

Yeah rust free on arches, boot floor and under ecu. I gave the rear wheels a good shake when I bought it, I didn't check behind the wheels though, only the arches. When I took it into a local garage a guy who owned a Turbo VTS said it was a very nice example.
