I never should have given my restored XD away. I bought it, ripped the running gear out of it, and gave it to a mate who sent it to the crusher. I should have kept it and done a ESP mock up. It was already full of ESP bits including diff and 4 wheels discs. I've been kicking myself for years.

Do up the XD. Awesome shape and can be made to look real nice with a set of wheels and dumped suspension.

Fix up the XD and keep it. In 10 years people will look at xd's the same way people look at xt's and wish they never sold theirs. If you want a daily reliable driver get a newer car though.
