Hello on my second Si now loved my first one to bit but unfortunately sold after alot of electrical faults, for the past year ive been driving a turbo volvo but the running costs are crippling me as luck would have it i found this one one ebay and its now mine, just over 100k fairly solid seems to go well   so far the plans are a bloomin good service and bit of TLC |

Looks nice. Was for sale on here but I also remember it on here ages ago, does it have a PUMA gearknob? If so then its the one I'm thinking of. |

yes it has a Puma gearknob it came from south Leicester got home today and changed the power steering fluid as it whining alot.... still the same so thinking of going to a manual rack sure ive read it can be done? the ignition barrel was hit or miss so ive ripped it out and cut the steering lock off until i can get a new barrel IMO puma wheels look awful on the puma but they really suit this! i kept the lattice ones off my last Si so cant decide now which to use |

Lowering is on the cards when I sell thebold car (what springs are best) And will have a look at the manual conversion thanks will save weight and power and is weird going from power steering fiesta to wrestling with a bear in the capri |
