Location: Newcastle Upon Tyne		Hello fellow members,

I'm aweful at introductions so apologies

I decided after I got rid of my first car a Peugeot 307, I wanted to buy something I wanted to drive. So after two failed trips to Huddersfield and Sheffield I finally found a Rover 100 which wasn't rusted to badly. Big thanks to my mate Dave who drove about 700 miles in three days to look at cars.

Anyways here she is, Rover 100 1.1 Knightsbridge in Nightfire Red. It's got 48k and in really good condition. It's going to be my daily so wanted the car to be in decent condition. Cost me £650 which I thought was a good deal. It's had new arch on the drivers side. Enjoyed the driving just seems so twitchy on the rear.

Plan are

Rear Spoiler
Colour Coded Bumpers
Lowered
Alloy Wheels
Cherry Bomb Exhaust
1.8vvc

Already been in the for sale section and spotted a set of Wolfrace Thrust Alloy wheels which I really like. It will be a slow process as may's well do it right first time than swap parts again and again

I'll have a look at setting up this journal
