    Its going to get a respary at some point, and a new canvas. Both are fine for the time being however.

    It drives lovely, and the power steering is better than the puma, its more nibble too, and feels more sporty to drive than the 130..

    4 new tyres came with it.

    Other than a good clean, and the fitting on antennae and radio its going to stay as is until the upgrade....


    Brakes seem fine so as Justin suggested I think we will leave them alone.
    welcome to my world !!!!! you'll find yourself driving it more often than you do the 130...

    a great buy.

    But the doors don't have gaps on the puma, and you can hear the wireless.

    but i don't have a wireless in mine, the turbo whistle and sound of that glorious 4bd1 is plenty enough

    bah, panel fit is overrated

    But you will find that in the long run it will be a better vehicle than the electronic nightmare parked next to it, with 60 thousand on the clock it will still be going when I'm dead n gone LOL cheers and enjoy it Dennis

    Define nightmare, you have to live with the smell of cattle truck in front of you, eat dust as a form of cooling, and endure ear damage at 90klm while in the slow cooker. I know what I like to drive for long trips most of the year.

    ........only joking. Nice buy Judd.

    I have just got my RFSV rag top too

    I have the same type RFSV w/w, just got it licensed yesterday. I took off the roof rack (missing one rubber boot)and rolled the canopy back to the cab. I will drive that for a bit and then take it all off and see how the windscreen folds down.

    Looks like mines had a rebuild, its like new underneath, with a some new parts fitted. I got a brand spankers air compressor underbonnet

    Its going to get a respray at some point, and a new canvas. Both are fine for the time being however. Having a camo defender means my other 110 can stay white.

    It drives lovely, and the power steering is better than the puma, its more nimble too, and feels more sporty to drive than the 130..

    4 new tyres came with it. They gave me 3 spares??

    Other than a good clean, and the fitting on antennae and radio its going to stay as is until the upgrade....

    I had a few minor things to fix that added up to ~4k so as I could license it. It failed as the roll bar padding they made me get was not dense enough. I had to get the racing sti rated stuff. It is a fun machine though

    Mine also had brand new Compressor unit.

    I got 3 spares in total, one is a split rim.

    Did you spend another 4k on repairs?
