Drove mine tonight, only cos i had to take it up Lee's for the box to go in. Some Focus TDCi reckoned his chances Waited til he was along side, going past like, then levelled things up! Clutch slipping like a bastid still though Cant wait to be able to use the car properly(ish) again!

Thing is, it got REALLY hot going at about 120 for 5mins or so. Like 100* + . Time to post on Migweb perhaps! and yes, there is coolant in it!

P.S. Welcome to the world of LAG!

yup, got one on there.

I use my car as a sales pitch at work, blah blah blah, in my car, 2.0 turbo, i floor it and wait a week for anything to happen whilst the turbo spins up BUT in this, the power is there from the moment you plant your foot, its brilliant!


But it works!

Fan is working also as it came on at Lee's
