#240279 I had! aha.

Got the silver hatch on my doorstep now, and the black one's head gasket's now been fixed :)

Hopefully by sunday the hatch'll be part-stripped-down and the coupe'll be gone with a red one in its place xD

#242437 power antenna :?: Never see that on a coupe before,though i see one on a bubble before.. Also is that a glass sunroof ? Why is it red?... That is 3 very nice cars you have there.. What year was that hatch. I want speaker grills :x haha

#242440 its the same as both my coupes, its not a moonroof just a power metal sunroof. I think the power antennas are standard on our coupes in the UK, that hatch is awesome too, shame its gonna be ripped to pieces soon :lol:
By Boods
#242452 Yeah, sunroof is just metal, they seem to rust round the edges and the black one's screwed!

I think andys right as well, the antennas are powered but on both me coupes they make a weird DUN DUN DUN noise when they're going up to maximum length >.>

Also hatch is 1995 :) Would get the hatch running but it's too tatty and the red coupe is the perfect base for a beaut project, 100% standard, least miles and cleanest in and out :)
Silver one's got all the goodies but it's all been bodged together, the wiring for the head unit + dvd screen was a right bitch to take out and there's just too many little niggling things wrong with it, same as the black one.

ATM trying to sell the black one so i can put the money from it into getting the engine from the silver one running, then drop it into the red one...

TOO MANY CARS! >.>

Tomorrow should be a good day, Type R seats, long arm intake, sound system and splitter going on if the weather prevails! Had too much to sort today as got a new flat >.>

#242457 That silver hatch has a sr which means it may have speaker grills. Interested if you will sell!
By Boods
#242458 Do you mean part of the rear plastic interior? Will check to see if there's any speaker grills, not too sure if there is, and also P&P to canada'd be quite pricey i can imagine =\
