Must just be the style at the time, it kind of reminded me of that I saw every time I opened the bonnet on my BX 16 valve...

That little car looks like it'd be an absolute blast. I'm not much into the hot-hatch scene, but stripped-out interior + uprated engine = craploads of track-day fun.

Didn't you want the 4x4 system?
mind you the donor cars' 4x4 system was probably the
reason it was a donor in the first place
Anyway, congrats, as you win the coveted 'Longest Gear Stick Award 2011'

Yeah they are all right hand drives.
The cam cover is now back on, those engine bay pics are 2 years old now. It's also running an air filter.
A lot of works been done to it. You guys should be able to access this:
