I'm getting married on the 24th and then in honeymoon so I anticipate breaking the donor from the end of April.

wish me luck

She's a beauty Darve :cool: I can see a lot of parts there you wont need :d hopefully you'll make your £400 back easily and then some :t-up:

Once I'm well I'll make the trip to come and see you to check out the progress and I'll take you for a run out in mine :t-up:

she's growing on me Mark! but hey, I'll have to get over it :)

the more money I make on the Mazda, the more I can save (read spend) on the build!

would be good to meet up, i'm not too far from Colchester. wishing you well.

I have had a look round Daves MX and he will have plenty of parts to sell, nothing broken, just well used.

Dave-- you shouldn't be on these forums, wedding to organise and your intended might run out of patience :laugh:

Thank you :t-up:

In the end nobody sticks to their budget, so I'm sure we'll all help you spend any extra money you make :d If you're ever over my side of the county give me a shout and you'd be welcome to pop in for a cuppa and some tyre kicking.

Just as Kuga finishes his, another one starts! Westie heaven for the SDV bretheren! Good luck, Darve, and have a lot of fun in the process. :t-up:

Looks a lovely donor for £400
