Picked up this little beauty last year. Plans are to do a few track days as I build it up and hopefully start rallying again in a few years after a long break.
Started off with a few creaks and knocks so so far has been treated to a reconditioned rear beam. Full set of Mintex discs and pads, new clutch kit, new group A lower wishbones, drop links, top mounts and bearings, new set of T1R's, new engine seals and gaskets.
Old beam:
New seals and Clutch:

I've heard the ATPower bodies aren't great by the way mate

The only come from Peugeot Sport normally. I suspect it is possible to make your own, all the are is GTi wishbones with a 2x metal bushes instead of 1x rubber and 1x metal.

How much? £157+VAT each? Even with the poor exchange rate they aren't that expensive from Peugeot Sport in France.
