Pretty impressive spec list!

Must say the car looks very well done, high quality of work!

Wouldn't like to think how much £££ you have spent on it!

So what do you use the car for? Daily drive, show car, ever taken it on track?

Thanks, its always alot cheaper when you just wait for parts to come up second hand a lot of the time and do good deals.

I use it for every day use but i dont have to drive it to work coz its only like 10 minutes walk. but take it to shows. its never been on track but once the engine conversion is done i will probly take it on a 1/4 mile sprint to see what time it does..on 18's haha.
