Thought i'd make a little project thread for my body kitted Rover..
So i've owned this car since december, it was in really good condition when i bought it but due to lack of funds and other general rubbish happening in my life this year it's been neglected, driven everyday with only only enough money to put fuel in it.
Everyday its hard work to drive, suspension is too hard, noisy and a pain in traffic. Find a good road though and it transforms into such an awesome car, chassis wise these are pretty well sorted. It gets a lot of hate, usual Rover related BS but I quite like that, it means that these are dirt cheap to buy and a damn sight more fun to drive the boring 1.6 German hatchbacks my mates think are cool!
Plans are:
Fix all little issues, replace brakes, fluids etc.
Build up an enclosed induction kit to lose the crap little box MG fitted it with
Replace bushes
Sort out a few paintwork issues
Change the seats
Also a few little OEM+ touches here and there, I don't want to ruin it.
After that, its all about driving it to different places and enjoying it with a couple of track days thrown in.
Only one picture at the minute, its too dirty to take any right now!
