There are things that can be done, but I just cant bring myself to doing them, knowing that the car is still far from being road perfect. So next up on the agenda, since i cannot locate any dealers in the country selling parts for these cars, is to place an order to get all the OEM parts from the UK. Its not gonna break my pocket, but it will take some time to get everything here as I am going to place a single part order first, to ensure the reliability of the foreign dealer, wait for it to ship here, and then place the order for the others.

I had a somewhatofaproject sunny before, tried to do it the shortcut way, lets just say its sitting in a scrap iron yard somewhere. One thing I've realized about a project, its gonna cost alot more than you intend to spend, and in the end you could never get back that kinda money for it. You really gotta love what you're doing to get it done the right way

I recently purchased a Rover 200 (Nov. 2017) with a d15b manual conversion. I have done some engine/bay work to it and it runs good. But like DjQ i need to get a fuel pump (as the car cuts off when it wants) and a radiator, so the car is sitting at the moment. I am about to switch to some coilover sleeves just like you did and change up some gaskets in the meantime.
interested to know how things turned out with your project and how it looks now.
