sounds pretty good...

2.0 16v xe, twin 45 dellorto carbs, engine rebuild recently, full cage, buckets, harnesses, quick shift box, discs all round, quick rack, slicks, spare rims, trailer...

hope its all as good as it sounds. the lads not rolling roaded it, but it stays side by side with his mates carb'd xe, which rr'd at 197bhp

any last minute things to look out for? bringing my mate who has built a xe nova before so he can spot the welding thats been done etc
