Can't post links at the minute as i'm on my phone but if you have a look through the 'show us your cars 2' thread in off topic there's some pics in there. It won't come with the porsche wheels though.

Just need to decide what's staying and what's going though.
Can't remember if i said in the post above that it has been in a rear end accident and has been written off (category c - uneconomical to repair )

the damage to thge floor. either leave it or knock it out. hasnt affected the chassis though, car is stuill straight.

tailgate damage. pretty big ding. might push out to some extent but not tried anything yet as i only found out a few days ago that it wont be repaired by insurance. it still openes and closes as it should but panel gap is out, as you would expect. it also needs an exhaust.

the glory days

But seriously, well done buddy

Nice one. You've definately got first refusal then.

The situation i'm in is that it is currently my daily ride but the wife has just crashed her saxo which was only insured 3rd party fire and theft so it's gone for scrap. I've got a mk 2 golf gti about to go on the road and my sister has sold me her polo(i'm taking that at the end of the month).

I'd rather wife drives the polo as its a tidy small car and its comfortable. However the truck is cool and she likes the attention when she drives it. It is also very handy for ferrying bikes around...

On balance i think i'm going to very reluctantly let the truck go.

you dont want the pick up you want to sell it to me at the end of the month its no good for keeping the food shopping in the back dry on the way back from asda and it would be so handy for me hauling logs about (got a wood burner heating system at home)
