    lol .. well got car back and it failed

    Only on one thing though :D

    Offside rear rear parking brake recording little or no effort

    so basically it failed on the hand brake which isnt to bad ..

    He said the RBT Park Brake Efficiency was 7% , when you pull the hand brake their is very little if any movement of the hand brake cable .. so
    probably just needs a new cable .. :P

    So it goes back friday for the work needed then on saturday she's up for
    sale as im after a 200sx s13 or a fiesta rs turbo

    so happy days :D

    Not to sure fella probably about £1500

    Done 82k . Cam belt and head done @ 79k

    Basically its a Willy Rep with the Alloys , Full interior and carpet , dials ,
    Decals etc

    also has a Magnex exhaust and a remapped chip

    few pics below ... gonna sort some better pics on the weekend after its
    come back from the garage ..

    Only thing it needs to be mint is a bonnet and tailgate but thats if you want
    it a minter ... as rust around the rear wiper arm and the paint has reacted
    from a cheapo repaint by the bonnet scoop from the previous owner ..

    To be honest though the car has only done 2.5k 2500 miles since the
    last M.O.T a year ago so hasnt been used much . So i suprose thats why
    the handbrake needs doing as its been parked up more than than enough
    in the last year :P
