LUCIFER
or Lucy to her friends
This is about Lucifer, my car. I bought her for 350 GBP and so far, have spent about 650 quid on her. Thats over a grand!! This is sure to get higher though. Anyone who has no interest in cars, better stop reading now.


I bought her on December 1st 2000. (When I was 16) Over christmas holidays, i spent about 5 hours a day working on her
 
She wasnt in a great state
Most of the time over christmas was spent sanding down and patching up the bodywork, as any mini owner will tell you, rust is a major problem, exaggerated by the original home of the car - the seaside! Anyway, it was all worth it, cos for at least a few months, the P38 easy sand filler will stay on the shelf :)
