I sold it any way. You need to hurry and get a driving licence!!!

Yeah i do, failing theory tests is boring and expensive lol

something about ep80s, there pretty cool. Possibly down to how rare they are!

Most are owned by young peeps like me or being used as the shopping cart of old women lol

Well after shortys not so subtle hint im gonna share wots going on.

THE GOOD NEWS.

Me and shorty drive to bristol the other day and purchased some wantabes. 14x6 rs-8 split rims. They look amazing (picks tomoro)

THE BAD NEWS.

on said drive to bristol my head gasket went. After 197k the engine has finally given out. It has been a wicked little car and now i need to choose. I have 2 options, 1- fix the head gasket and wait for something else to go (quite possible given the miles) 2 - scrap it or sell filthy cheap and buy a lower millage 1.3 instead?

Am leaning toward the 1.3 for the reliability of a younger engine and the fact that there are millions of hills near me! (The 1ltr struggled so much).

Well untill the picks of the wheels go up thats all for now.

Deebo.

Or even the 5efe thats sat in my other bros garage :D or the forged 4e i have for sale or buy my 5door ep85 dom haha. Dan the list is so endless haha. Is a lush 1.3 that looks almost the same as deebos for sale 10mins down the road thats soooo tempting atm!

Posted

Its all about the N/a Ep8* builds :D Have a read through Geo's old threads and i bet you any money you'll be down at that boys door buying the 1.3 82 or doing some crazy shit to the 5dr 85 haha.

Posted

Im not gonna lie the itch to put a 5e na build with the 85 5door is a BIG itch! Or ill just wait till deebo replaces this n just 5e this haha.

Posted

See! Totaly need to happen! Fuck it deebo get a quote on your insurance n me n gdog will bung a 5e in it ;) would only take a weekend to do.

Posted

Wow that kicked off some ideas lol

The issue with the 5e is that i cant insure it in a starlet! So it will be this as was or a 1.3. The rubbish bit is that a paseo is way cheaper for me than a 5e starlet wierdly enough.

And im booking my driving test in two weeks for asap. Finally passed my gay theory lol

Posted

It's not gonna be much to do a head gasket bud, get shorty signed up for it ;)

The collect your parts and the do a engine swap at least that way if and when you see you can throw the 2e back and and put the 5e in something else ha ha

Logically thinking or just go all in

I've already told him ill do the head gasket if he wants but tbh i think the 1.3 is really apealing to him as tbh the 1l is a tad of a pain where we live on the hills. But with a refresh it could be epic.

Haven't seen your thread before but I love it!

I've gone to an ep80 because of the light weight and simplicity!

I also went for the trd shocks and springs :) nice and firm!
