Thanks 4 the comments Dave :D
Yes I will be looking to do some minor upgrades i.e Exhuast, Brakes & centre caps.

I THINK I KNOW WHAT THE LADA THING WAS :!:

BUT I THINK IT LOOKS MORE LIKE H1 36 LDA (HILDA) WITH "36 CURVES" :bananasex:

Think you should get some aftermarket seats as well and then donate yours to my restoration project :D

Lovely car Baz and an excellent colour. Welcome to Elan ownership and LEC.

Geoff

BTW Take no notice of Eds, he supports Spuds and has obviously spent too long with Gary (tight as a duck's arse) and DaveT (Liverpudlian). :wink:
