Postby Mazda Mender » Tue May 26, 2015 11:13 pm

Build...06

Well she arrived just before the new owner arrived to collect the white one, and she is a MK 2 R.S import in silver with a 6spd box ,lsd diff and billies, 1.8cc and rot free with low miles.

Easy enough to get right to my standard, list of attack will be...
All new disks and pads all around with a brake system service,
Full service including water pump and cam belt change,
Engine bay clean,
Full underseal and box sections,
Paint wing mirrors,
Upper and lower gear shaft boots,
Diff and gearbox oil change,
good clean and polish in and out,
Misc items just because i'm not happy with them, immobiliser socket moved, wiper arms sprayed, etc etc....

I'm waiting to see what you do to her and then how much you want for her when she is done as I could be tempted to increase my ownership back to two in the very near future!!
