Welcome to the Steel Silver Manual GPX club :lol:

I take it you are living in Dublin - did buying a UK model not work out kinda pricey?

Myfeckin FTO - cheers!
Re: Sterling prices - Its an ebay car which I got for the reserve price so it worked out as best it could... Its actually going to work out about a grand more than it would to get a 96 from a jap auction on the road here, but about the same or less than getting a 97, and certainly worked out better than buying locally. Add that and the fact that I've tons more peace of mind buying in the UK than in Japan so I jumped at it.. . Im having the RAC over there give it full comprehension inspection on Monday aswell before I part with any cash.
(I've actually already had them check out a very moderately priced gx over there for me that turned out to be a bit of lemon, but thats something for another thread...)

kevinod - no its a 97 pre-facelift, making it almost exactly my perfect spec FTO :D
