    So then i wanted a volvo and drove all the was to bolton to get it was really hoppy with it it was lowered on mk1 escort blocks and was sitting on some nice borbet wheels. But driving everyday with a welded diff everyday got annoying was fun but annoying so picked up a red sportif for £600 from ifield. I don't have any pictures from when i brought it but we all now how these builds start with a faded as fuck red sportif.
