Pictures Of My New 5

Guys
went to see an s special yesterday down in Southend, 3 hours of driving later and me and a friend were having a good look around the car and decided it was what I wanted. We struck a deal on the price and I plan on going back to get it over the long weekend.
Seller is putting it through an MOT this Saturday so it will have a full ticket.
Car is pretty standard, only addition is a nice sounding stainless exhaust, will have to check for a make, and it also has 4 toro r888 tyres fitted which I won't be keeping on it.
Checked all the paperwork and inside the door shut and everything checks out for it being an s special. Has billies, 15" BBS wheels, all braces bar the strut brace are present, tweeters in the door etc. Colour is amazing, in the dark it's green yet in the day it's blue! Has a nardi wooden steering wheel which has to go and gearknob. The stereo will be going too as it is from 1975.
Plans will probably be coilovers, GV lip, some tasty wheels, ducktail spoiler and relocate the front number plate to offset. Currently it has a square plate stuck to a rectangle plinth! Anyone selling an offset bracket let me know.
Pics below are what the seller sent me, will take more on collection

I love the wooden Nardi bits with the tan interior (V-Spec etc) but agree what`s on their now doesn`t suit.
Let the spending commence!

re centrecaps, mine still has the 4 of em, but for some time I left it without them and it looked good, a set of long nuts would have done the job better than the caps me finks
