The guy doing the welding on VA485 has bought himself a tidy looking Toledo. I was over there this morning and had a look over it.
I have never owned a Toledo, my question is, is the front subframe mounted using the same bushes etc as the Dolomite?

Originally our cars (1500, Dolomite and Toledo) had a double cup washer arrangement
for mounting the front of the subframe.
The good news is that you can convert this to the far better Sprint bushes.
