I agree. Too nice to cut up. Ben's link is to Oje's. He had a workshop in Newbury, Berkshire, but has just moved back to Wales.
Mr Munk is young Ryan from Cornwall, the demon pinstriper who striped my bike helmet for me last year. How old are you Ryan? 17? And you've got an Amazon as your first car?! Very cool mate. Tis a thing of beauty is that.

I always liked those volvos look a proper car. What to do to it? Well me i am with the keep it subtle crowd myself, but its all yours and your first car Cool that's ace!  Make it a car you keep for years maybe even forever, cars can change how you want them to suit your needs and current ideas changing cars is not always a good idea most will look back and wish they had kept the first decent car we ever owned, but few of our first cars were worth keeping Grin
 Now there you differ yours is worth keeping good luck with it and looking forward to watching your progress together.

CHEWIE !   Don't lead the poor lad astray.
Nice car there Munk. Please don't do anything irreversible until you've got the skills or cash to do it properly.
Insurance is so expensive for young drivers anyway that I suggest that you get it on the road standard with perhaps some nice paint. It needs nothing more as it's a cool car anyway.

I think the rust looks really cool!  Get a rust paint job!

That's instinct speaking - I reckon Old is right, keep it simple for the insurance, you want to be able to afford some juice so you can drive it!
