		depends on how hard core he goes, Ie with Perspex and fibre glass panels, and thinning of panels, Ie chopping out some supports, ( some of the racers thin out the doors, boot lids) also thinning out the loom too, and removing practically all the extras and leaving just the basics in.

It owes me less money and its tidier! Win win situation. My mate offered me £300 for the saxo exactly as it stood so hes having it. Hopefully he collects and pays this week so i can get more shizzle bought.
