Well where to start? ..Treated myself to a 400mile round trip last friday to collect this.Many thanks to Daverapid for putting me in touch with the owner and also to Graham (owner) for being a total skoda nut and thoroughly nice bloke!!The car has been stood for some time,2003 I think but did have the outer sills replaced and some repairs to the inners about 2 or 3 years ago.Not been started or moved for some time and apart from OSF brake stuck we managed to get it on the trailer.Once home it was put in the drive and have tinkered on and off since.It is now running on the injection system and as of this morning since freeing the clutch ,moves under its own steam ! Not the prettiest example at the moment but hopefuly that can be remedied in time,budget is tight thanks to job loss but main thing is its home and there is plenty to be done before spending any money.Well thats it,a surviving RiC still running its squirty thing and a bloke with time on his hands.. :think:

Just to give you a bit of encouragement

My J reg RIC

Hows this beauty going?

HOw is it going? Have you scrapped her, yet?

That's another one of my ex-motors, owned by me from '92 all the way through to 2011 and was the car that got me hooked on Skuds. Sadly I parted with her in the great "whinging neighbour" clear-out of 2011. I fear for her fate now which rumour has it is not good, though I'd love to learn otherwise....
