My wife thinks I'm sad!!

Got all excited today when I went to see my Two in a local body shop.

It has been in for around six weeks and is nearly ready for me to take home .

I arranged to have the sills, rear arches and rear lower quarters to be replaced as there were signs of blistering in the paint work. While it was in I
asked them to have a good dig/look around underneath incase there was more rust worm, but it seems I am lucky as they did not find any serious rust areas even though she's nearly 24 :icon_lol: .

Sorry to bore everyone with my story, I'm just glad it seems to be a good one after spending thousands over the last 5 years.

I bought her nearly 5 years ago for 2k after searching for almost a year for a good one.
Finally found her in Leighton Buzzard, about 100 miles from me.
Took the train to pick her up after 2 days of swapping info and pics with the owners neighbour (he was helping to sell the car) via email.

The seller originally bought the car in 1993 as the second owner from a local Toyota dealer and kept her until I came along.
She was bought with just under 40k on the clock, then in the 15 years to 2008 only completed 14000 further miles (less than 1k a year). I have put about 20k on the clock since owning her.

The best part is she was always kept in a garage for those 15 years so only needed cosmetic work.
Since owning her I have replaced the struts, bushes, brakes, clutch and a complete Stainless exhaust system and 4 branch manifold. Oh! And not forgetting new front wings as they were bubbling on the edges in 2010.

Now I am on the final push to sort the sills and rear arches as they were showing signs of corrosion.
