minxy Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hey, Well same as everyone else the starlet bug has got me! I got rid of my N/A UKSpec in August and have been driving a 306 and have been desperate to have a nice car again. So i've found this, went and saw it yest and put a deposit on it. It needs a bit of love and some bits doing, the glanza writing on rear quater has been replaced with Diamante - which looks V.Gashy and all stickers need ripping off including sunstrip but i'm pretty chuffed with it! Both wings need painting and also need my wheels on it, opinions please . . . And sorry about photo quality they are form the advert so will get some good ones once she's home, de stickered, cleaned and waxed! Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Will look nice once it's got your wheels on it (the ones that were on your N/A yes?) and had a good clean and polish.What's under the bonnet? Link to post Share on other sites
minxy Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Standard under bonnet. Other than BOV, It's lowerred at the moment on 16's so going to get soem coilies and get it nice and low on my 15"s like my old one was. Its generally needing some love and tidying up. Silly things like the rear plate isn't Jap size it's Motorbike size so doesn't fit recess properly! Link to post Share on other sites
