    Strut Brace

    Strut brace for a 1.2 16v (possibly gt3, but not certain)
    never fitted to mine
    £50, collection preferred, can take to auto italia if necessary

    Looks the same as mine, if so it will fit a GT3 with a little fettle.

    You need to move the two reservoirs for the brakes and PAS.
