I've found a Vit in a local breaker yard with a complete engine and some pretty wide wheels. I think i need to phone up and talk ££££!

Im phoning up tomorrow. I called in earlier today but the gaffer wasnt about. Hopefully the bits i want will be in my garage by sunday.

If i'm gonna go to 33s the extra oomph would come in handy. And now i've got springs that won't snap with the extra kgs.

Also for 33s the wheels may be useful. Need to find out exactly how wide they are fairly sure the decision has been made!

Nice find! Does it have the wing mounted rear lenses? (wink wink :D )
