yeah i disagree lol red rocks lad, what is it with the army guys having such good cars, i was at an event organised a few years back by th police service of northern ireland in ballykelly army base in derry, the place was full of evo's and stuff like that, being in the service must pay pretty well

I should have been clearer i dont think red suits the 205 but the 165/185 look good in red especially the CS/RC as it aint as dark.
Just looked at your location on the map-i was based at Ebbrington barracks from may 01 to may 03 and used to drive my armoured wagon through the gobnascale more or less every day.
Fun having bricks thrown at ya ;D

Hi There.

Welcome to the club  ;)

deffo got yourself some nice bits building up there, should make a nice four when you've got everything fitted.

I see you've bought JP's old 185. it'll be nice to see to see old girl back on the road, he had that 185 before i got mine....back in 2003  :o

Yer we needed a car and Erin(the wife) took a shine to it when she saw the pics online-so went for a look and she wanted it so at £900 its a good buy.
Needs m.o.t 2x tyres,fuel line sorting and tracking done but shouldnt take much to sort out.

deffo got yourself a bargain there  ;)  JP had already done a load of work to it before deciding to sell up.

I thought about buying it but it's a widebody and i want another narrowbody  :(

Yer its a bargain-no longer has CS bumper but i like em so will get another eventually.
The wife just wants tints,alloys and new seats as she like the recaros in my faff.

When we can afford it i may buy some Teins,whiteline arb and maybe a CS bonnet if i stick a FMIC on it.

But the faff is the main project.
