Much approval here.

Seem to remember a work colleague had a white and yellow one. Until it went through a hedge...

I reckon a big block supercharged v8 poking through the bonnet would look awesome

Much better than I expected. Ari Vatanen always said they were a naturally understeering car that you need to provoke to slide, so I was expecting a mediocre drive.

It's so much better than a Capri to drive IMO. Light but positive steering (no PAS here) easy to get the tail out and feels very tight. I'll let you take it out when you're up next.

It does need more power though!

That looks really good, Sir Leon - I want to have a go!

[Will]

It looks in tip top condition! You got yourself a gem there

[Zirax]

Where on earth did you find one in that good nick? Still keep seeing the same Chevettes on ebay, the one with a dodgy panel repair is up again (its the light green one).

That looks really good

God everytime i see new cars it makes me want to go hunting for something slightly different! I love to drive something different (and not particulary boring) to everything my friends know of!
