They are great cars, this is in suprisingly good shape for a 21 year old motor, all original

no few and far between, I remember we had 8 of these as company sales reps cars in 1989, everyone raved on about how good they were.....

Nice one I think It's brilliant your saving her m8 they are so rare I wish I could have saved mine but she was like a teabag but her engine and bits live on in my envoy.

from what I have seen so far, small plate in nearside arch required and upon removal of the skirt 1/5 of the sill has gone from the rear end, purchased full sills but will patch up want to retain as much of the original sill as possible.

Will replace the two O/S doors too as they are dented, then into the paint shop in the spring, will be ready for her 21st Birthday

These are very rare now, thanks to the goverments scrappage scheme. If restored will be worth a bob or too in a few years, there is something about the prefacelift SRi I really like. Got a genunie Irmscher inlet and exhaust manifold along with a piper race cam with venier pully, these might be fitted one day but got fuel pipes, CV joints, wishbones and undersealing to do then its ready for MOT. More pics to follow......
