My old man asked for a shot of my old 313bhp Pulsar and i happily gave him a blast as he didnt think itd be all that quick.
Quick glance at the speedo and he was doing 150+(on private land) with a big cheesy grin on his face.lol.
He turned to me and said "Fuk me,this things rapid,".Aye Dad,maybe start to slow down tho.

Yeah, did your dad also try to talk you out of buying it, saying what a poor investment it is etc etc etc, then go on to enjoy it even more than you?

dad passed away 12months back, main reason for buying the car is its dads kind of car, rwd and made by lotus!
also he always pushed me to do projects so know he would have been telling me to buy this even tho short on funds, he knows i always manage to find money from places!
am on couse for getting money back, just sold engine and few other bits!

Yeah,i swapped it for a 328i sport and he was telling me i was off my head,shouldve kept the BM,much better car blah blah.But when i came to sell the Pulsar i was a bag of sand in pocket.So it turned out to be a good investement.Dont think he would have enjoyed it more than me tho. .Loved that car and when my licence is clean i will deffo be having another.To this day i wished i hadnt sold it but had no choice.

Yes, I remember asking him when he'd been to Leigh, he just goes "Oh, er, how did you know?"

sounds ok, not nicest car i have heard, but dont get alot of choice of exhausts in 3inch for vx220!
i would put exhaust more as a functional one than one for looks and sound!
