bought this about a week ago, 96k, 5 months T&T service history and previous mots, not abused and not tinkered with, DHY on a lucas and k14.
after 2 days I got bored of standard boost, so went to dannys unit and he fitted the boost gauge for me, and we did a stage 1, didn't really go too far tbh, didn't want to bother with the lucas, so it's boosting around 16-17psi, still bog standard exhaust with cat etc still in, and standard airbox, the engine bay is really clean, along with the interior, even got an armrest in the back, but sadly it's been keyed down both sides, previous to me getting it, so a job for me and danny to paint it up, undecided wether to do a full colour change yet, dannys fitting me a 9mm gov'ed bosch setup and a 2.5" straight through exhaust to a tip on sunday, so will give it some tinkering and get it boosting to around 25psi, then onto lowering, anyway some pics.

Looks like a good project, but how long will this last? probably be scrapped or up for sale in a month

Wow, I still remember your old car from 306.net. I seem to remember some weird stuff happened to what was an otherwise tidy car and it's become a bit of a "slapper" car in that it's had several different owners and generally regarded as a heap of shit by almost everyone on the forum! Should be interesting to see how long this keeps your interest! Still living in Gloucestershire?

I've NEVER lived in Gloucestershire, and yeah everyone slagged me and my car off when I got rid of it, and its only had 2 owners since I got rid, the 2nd owner still has it sat on his drive, although its been writ off.
Alright chris, its an SLDT, so no electric windows in the back or sunroof etc, and I paid £450 for it.
