they are 1300.
1300 sport came from factory standard-cam and manifold etc were fitted by dealers-we did many of them-well all of them for the north and the midlands.

Did you spend this moring at the fun factory or were you relaxing at home?
I didn't get up until the time I would normally be half way home
Bit random and nothing to do with thread I know but, go on ebay, click on 'Buy' and type in 'Tamiya Sand Scorcher' in the search box and make sure you're sitting down

Nice one Bubblevaux, cheers for clarifying mate
I was absolutely convinced they were all 1.3 litres.
Thought I was loosing my mind for a bit then
I remember when they were new and how they were, I mean, modern FWD production car, retro fitted with RFXs (or Irmscher rims) and sidedraughts by the dealer network - little wonder everone wanted one. They sounded great
