Details to follow, all i can say for now is a BIG thank you to Lee & Gem....

Right a little more details after a tired day at work!!! As Lee says a couple of posts down, I saw this on Ebay and decided it was too good to miss, all Ive seen so far have been utter crap. This is going to be my new toy/winter hack so I can lay my white one up.

Not much to say other than it has been lowered and will have my 15" TH's on it. Hopefully Mark can teach me a thing or two about dents then I'll get busy protecting the bed...

Bigup HIC for sorting my insurance - *If you read this maybe you could sort me a deal on my white one next time too Wink

Anyway, pics from Ebay:

It's a 1.6d 4 speed in burgundy. Pretty solid truck that's already got coilovers and drop plates.

Basically, whilst I was driving back from sherwood forest, si was texting me about the caddy. He said someone else was viewing on the same day so I told him I'd drive him there and beat the other guy. We did by 5 mins lol so after a quick look over, a deal was done Smile

Expect to see it Friday at the meet

OK well I managed to get the keys back from Gem on Saturday wave

so have enjoyed a couple of days driving her. I managed to get a few bits done on her over the weekend and today I tackled some of the surface rust in the bed so it's protected when the cold comes... She will get a decent resto next summer I hope...
