Well i bought the car in May 2008 (for 4800), she was imported in 2004 (for 9800 euro) and i`m the second Irish owner. So much has changed since then and i`v never kept a car blog. Most of the changes have been recorded with random pictures although i took few at the start.I suppose a Blog like this will be handy to come back to if i decide to travel or go to Australia next year. The car has been on and off the road since august 2010 when i started uni, only when I had work at Christmas, summer time or on teaching practice was the car used. This resulted long spells sitting up whilst i gathered parts like turbo kits, suspension components ect. The car has never since 2010 felt like one connected unit; parts were always changing and being sold to fund others. Truth be told, I was probably never fully happy with it, apart form one day last summer when i took it out for a spin (as i had a daily driver corolla). I then drove it for like 2 weeks before being put back into the garage and taken apart once more. Here are the pictures taken that day: with the daily driver, now sold for an xli starlet.
