At least break it properly rather than half of it . Suspension, brakes, rear spoiler and that's just through a quick glance. :lol:

I have removed the parts i want off of it. The discs and pads were no good. Suspension i dont need, rear spoiler whats the point ?

Sometimes something looks better in pictures than it is in reality

If that were the case then id of swapped it for 100 ZRs. If that is tidier than yours then perhaps you should break it too.

They might be rare but i do not have any use for them. I cannot be bothered with the hassle of being messed around.

Come on now don't let your emotions get in the way. You said yourself that you get wound up too easily. Since you said please i will elaborate. People wanted some of pictures from the project so this is the first edition of pictures which show the donor vehicle.

End of the day a brm is just a brooklands green vi.
Which IMO is the worst colour going.
Coupe's are better and ZR's a 10 a penny, (not common, they are just that cheap)
Good luck with it and trying to get back what you spent :wink:

From looking at the pictures your BRM looks mint but i bet that is not the case in reality. My ZR is 100% rust free but ill admit that i changed a few body parts including the bootlid and passenger side door.

My car is very far from mint but if it was mint i wouldnt want to use it but its solid and thats all a care.

And i bet your car isnt mint in reality not many with a rover/ mg badge is..... so why did you need to change the panels? Rot???

Easy choice, you've obviously never driven a brm,
Better built, id be amazed if any zrs last 16 years

Scrap a limited edition car you say, nah it'll still be on the road when your zr has long fallen to pieces,

I've already scrapped 3 zrs due two rot issues I've not seen on the older bubbles only 97 to go :-P

I had to open a photobucket account to get pictures on here so just made that one up. I also selected a childish name so it would appeal to "enthusiasts" on here :)
