Welcome. How are you fixed for insurance on the FTO, did you get a decent quote ?

Nice buy, body seems to be good apart from the different shade rear bumper.
It's pretty rare now to pick one up with a sunroof.

Also I think the insurance will be easy to sort out by transfer, just a matter of how much extra

Looks like she got a classic rear end smack alright. Aside from that (which is exceedinly common on the fto), she looks like she has some clean lines all round.

I think the front bumper also different shade :)
Honestly if there was anything it was only minor as the front and rear under looks straight enough :smt003

Its automatic 4 gear box, was thinking to put 4g92 gearbox with LSD in it but.........i got in love with the current set up, so it wont be done till i change my mind :)

Regarding the insurance, i haven't got it sorted yet, just driving on drive other cars extension for now as i have to many cars atm and need to rid of some this summer :(

Have a few plans regarding it but need to finish other project till this will see major progress, i'll be doing bit by bit way for now.
