Hi there and may I wish you a warm welcome to TorqueCars, it is a pleasure to meet you.
Always check for a full service history. It's crucial on these cars. Does MPG and running costs bother you much?
The road between Rye and Hythe is one of my favourites round here. Especially since they have resurfaced it.
You'll find us a pretty friendly bunch and I'm sure you'll start to love and enjoy the forums as much as we all do.
Feel free to get involved in our other threads, all opinions are welcome and as they say "the more the merrier"!
Keep us up to date with your project as well, we like to see what people are getting up to with their cars.
