Thanks Dan, hope you are well

New clutch last year.

Various wear & tear fixes: New console bushes, anti-roll bar links, new N/S elec window mechanism, rear doors sealed, blower resistor.

Still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it!

...and have you had that from new then?

Ordered October 03. Arrived in uk feb 04. Registered and delivered to me march 04. That 1 month knowing I could have it was a killer. But I thought having the 04 plate would be best.

Does yours have short vrs boot badge? Facelift lights? Rear door pin delete? Long gearbox?

No had original long badge, long gearbox, old dashboard, rear door pins. Was 03 spec car.

Rear door pins?

Not familiar with that one. Do tell.

Pre 04 cars had rear door pins. Silver like the front doors. Personally don't see the point of then on any door. Broke my drivers one a couple if time resting my arm on it. Not very roadcraft I know lol

Oh, the chrome locking pins on the top of the door card?

With you now.

Yea, they are a bit of a waste of space and time really.

When I had my first vRS broken into, the brain dead breath wasting pond life that smashed two windows to gain entry actually tried to force one up using a pair of pliers (presumably) and only succeeded in snapping it.

May have been the same ****** dog turd that got into the current one after breaking into Ree Towers to nick the keys only to not be able to find reverse gear!

Wasn't funny at the time mind you. .

A Mod'.

Done it again I've just noticed.

Thread title spelt incorrectly.

Should be WHO'S not whose, doh.

Please ammend, there's a poppet.

Got mine new 1st march 2004 48000 and yes I do like it it's just that I live on the Isle of Wight and we can't go very far often!

Going to be difficult to beat a one owner example of that age and with that mileage I'd have thought?

Have you kept it 'mint' and standard then?
