Have you had the rear subframe done? They all look like titanic by now. That's what I would be looking at with 10k to spend first

I know that Mark had the rear subframe was done quite recently as well as gearbox rebuild at Mackie’s. He treated it the car very well, so I’m sure that the timing belt would have been done as required.
But the bare metal respray is a daft idea! A top class ‘paint correction’ would be a better bet IMHO.
