Renze,As you are interested I'll tell you a bit about my Skoda.It is a 1982 Rear engined Estelle that I bought as an accident damaged project.I then straightened the front out and rebuit it over the years to it's present state.I now have a 1300 all alloy Rapid coupe engine as used in the Favorit and Felicia to run on unleaded fuel .It has a Weber carb off a Ford Sierra,a 5 speed gearbox that I made fit and Rapid coupe rear suspension.I also fitted a Rally exhaust and Group B Rear whaletail spoiler off the 1980's Rally Skoda.I have now fitted white 6x15 alloy wheels with 195/50 x 15 tyres and lowered springs and dampers.To finish off it is painted it's original colour of Orange so you get noticed wherever you go!
On the farm I drive a 1990 Volvo 240 GLT (2.3 injection,leather interior and sun roof ).It is the best car I have ever bought! I paid 600 pounds for it-about 1000 Euros with 12 months roadworthiness certificate and 4 months road tax.I bought 5 tyres,front discs and pads and changed all the oil ,filters and plugs etc and it has gone for another 3 years without laying a spanner on it! Even the battery is the same one it came with-cheap motoring.
