Picked this up yesterday drove 250 mile and 4.5hrs of driving at speed. No major issues just some little bits n bobs. It's a 12/2003 owned by 2 .org folk before me. The good things amazing condition good hood, upgraded ICE, good wheels, drives good.air induction pipe, puddle lights

Bad things.. No AP callipers, calipers painted yellow, some gunk in the expansion tank. LEDs not to my taste there's a mix of green, purple and more green .

Will start a build thread I've got big plans for this

Ben,

Congratulations! I've finally had time to catch-up with what you have been doing. It looks like you have a very attractive base for your next project.

Look fwd to seeing her change as the project progresses

Glad you acted on my tip off ben and could sort a deal out I think you will have one nice TF by the time you have switched a few bits (any idea on why the revs jump when stopped) run some dish washer tablets through the system for a bit tthen do a coolant change hopefully that will sort out the murky stuff as it could just be remnants from previous HGF



Freestyle and TF for Sale Mk1 work in progress, well it never stops does it lol
