so many that have been following me and the unfortunate event of my storm have also noticed i have another one. its nothing special , just a standard gt2 model, but ive always loved to of owned another black one, and this just caught my eye.[img]

so with owning this for a couple of weeks i have noticed a few problems, steering rack was very slack with play, camber was terrible and the ride was not good for my back aswell as the fact it was too damm low. exhaust was leaking too. so decided to change entire steering system, all new including uj checked and new uj boot. front suspension only at the moment has been played with aswell as the camber adjustment. since not being able to use/drive the storm i decided that stealthy needed new boots, and the eyebrow spoiler was resprayed black and fitted too.

I've once seen a mk2 on an "L" plate, presumably sat unregistered at a dealership for a while. I had a K-plate GTII.

Excellent you have found a back up to the somewhat irreplaceable Storm!

hey rusty, get you checking me out today :-D
there is a storm in the pipeline im considering with a fairly decent price tag, so if its as good as the pics as in the flesh, and he still has it when/if the insurance pays decent payout, then it may almost possibly be the next one... fingers crossed.
