I'd advise the same for you - don't rush it. Find out what you've got first, and be sure of it, before you start altering it! Chances are it's already a silk purse, and you don't want to inadvertantly turn it into a sow's ear by rushing things! If in doubt - ask - this lot here are BRILLIANT, Ned, I can vouch for that!
Wise words indeed!!! I'm still finding out about things on here. If you wish to upgrade anything then the information should be on here, plus useful tips and help if required.

Ebay can be very useful in obtaining lots of parts and spares along with the Items wanted and for sale section of this forum. Les at Smc is very good as are Rimmer brothers in Lincolnshire.

Enjoy your new car. I'm sure it will have you driving around with a big grin.
A sticker should have been fitted to each car: Warning driving this car is likely to be addictive. May cause excessive smiling and cause serious damage to wallet due to upgrades and options available.
