if i decide to put it on the road, it'll need MOT'd etc.....
But it should be all mapped etc when finished.
It'll need new front tyres, new rear susp, new brake pads.....

its a bit pointless insuring, taxing, mot'ing etc for the amount it will get used...... im still unsure tho......
and the fact its as harsh as a dry cunt to drive

there are ways to make dry cunts less 'chafing'

I did enjoy being the pilot as it was towed today to It's new home, the guy awaiting it was excited by it i think. Kept looking at the brakes then the engine in the boot and started dribbling

Yeah i said the Diff was in a box next to the new engine in the boot and that he was to use all the new parts in the back and anything he needed from the old engine in the front. Told him everything not used was to go back into the car and that the rev limit could go up to around 8500. You may want to drop them an email to remind them cause im not sure whether he was paying full attention to me though i did make sure he was listening. it wasnt Gav wallace as he wasnt there though the boy did pull out a copy of your letter from his office without me showing him the ones i had. It will also be getting kept inside which i did enquire about. emm cant think of anything else other than i gave him my mobile number number incase he had problems and couldnt get a hold of you
