Hi, no rust issues on this one, just general tiding up, refurb wheels/calipers, new brakes, full service etc. I have replaced the rusty exhaust with a s/s system from Pumabuild, very good fit and great noise 8)

Croeso Paul as we say down here in wild Wales. Your FRP sounds a good buy brakes should not be a major problem.

Nah, wheels are dark grey at the moment. Prefer the standard finish :)
