at 220+ you're going to want an LSD, it'll struggle to get the power down, I imagine thats why the 300+ brake Civic is getting 5.5 secs or so 0-60 put the same power in a RWD car of similar weight and you'd prob get 0-60's under 5 secs (BMW M Roadster for instance)
hard to get the power down...
worth letting them know, and investigate while under warranty anyway, that way if it doesnt get fixed till next year when warranty is up, say ohhhh hang on a min, i had this fault a year ago and you didnt fix it, warranty it NOW!!!
arnold shark offer 2 years warranty for just shy of £300 iirc maybe it was £400.

the one where the cars all pull out the lay by in the first instance was about 15 miles from Oban on the A85, the same bit where the flame red 172 went flying past taking the racing line on public roads, nutter!!! and the other one where the camera is opposite the cars all coming out of a...

Paypal gives you an auto receipt and we fully guarantee and back up these payment - there is no need to worry.
The order has been accepted and placed now - so I will unfortunately - not be able to accept any cancellations...
Steven no way is it worth it!!! get a 205gti for £1500 and insure TP F & T then sell it for same as u paid for it or more and get a mk1 172 when you hit 21 or 22 when its more reasonable.
I've never paid more than £800 for insurance.
lol yeah 3 weeks from yesterday would be the absolute earliest but I've not heard from Justmatz yet...
asked them to confirm if they've placed the order for those who had paid before 6pm on sunday...
wayhay a Scottish Trophy, look forward to seeing that. Any Scottish V6's???
Kames (Ayrshire) Sprint track meet in June / July would be cool to see how the Trophy fares compared to us mere 182's and 172's
