So.... do I sell the bodies? Buy a supercharger and some shorter rods. It would make a 300ish bhp 8000rpm unit. Not sure it would ruin it though. There is a 260bhp Duratec with Ecu for sale on motorsport parts. £7k is a fair chunk of dolla though.

I’ll be there. Happy to be a track taxi for the day too, if people want a ride in something none Clio.

I’m in Vegas atm. I’ll get one when I get back on Xmas day, if my Mrs doesn’t kill me!

No, I’m a c**t.

I did look at the X5. The new one is out next year and that will be good. The current one is a bit shonky though. Also..... I heart Rangies.

It looks fine now it’s filthy. Everyone let’s you out of junctions, esp when I’m waving my glock at them.

Missed this, nope I'm not, maybe you're thinking of someone else?

Its staying how it is. The standard wheels on this MY17 model were matt grey anyway. I like the design of the black ones, just on a black car its a bit black. There was a Corris grey one available but that is the same colour as my dad's one so thats a no. After that there was a red one which...

I am starting to think I might be a bit that way you know... Will certainly stick out in the farming community. Rightly or wrongly it is in the most ‘resaleable’ colour combo. Innit

Yeah good deals on the remaining MY17 cars atm

Mans not hot.

£11k. It’s on 95k now, will come freshly serviced along with 9 months MOT.

100% all of ours before have. This ones nav had a fit within 4 miles of the dealer ha ha.

The Alpina wasn't doing it for me. So this has arrived. Still have the Alpina if anyone wants it? Bought it unseen off a spec sheet. Its blacker than I expected.... Black with the 'stealth' (lol) pack, is err black. 100 miles in and its doing 32.1mpg, not bad. 3.0 Diesel V6 with 306bhp...

To be fair these were going pop from the off. I posted on there about my friends going with in 2k miles and 4 weeks of delivery. All the ford fan boys said it was isolated and would be a 'bug' with the early cars. The problem was there from the onset, using a blinkered 'ooooooh Ford RS' view...

Kinda yeah. £13k would buy mine, £16k would get you a 250bhp monster. £16k would get you a good 160bhp Caterham.

Brand, a bit more R & D gone into them, finish is a bit better, dealer network, warranty, most are factory built now.

Yeah basically.

Not that hard to switch between anything really. A few Honda K20 ones now. Make good power but they are a heavy old lump.

New wheels and tyres. They get me away from using spacers on the rear too! Old wheel weight 19kg New front weight 12.6kg New rear wheel weight 14.7kg Total saving of 21.4kg unsprung! Which in this is worth 10bhp/tonne! Trial fit

Sold to @JD enjoy it my friend... Sad to see it go. There's a lot of my time in that car!

Footman James. I pay £177 a year for my Red one. (5000 mile limit) I pay £231 for my Blue one with 3 track days covered and agreed value of £15k. (4000 mile limit)

Also a Zero will be nearer 650kg with a zetec in, not sub 500kg.

LOL at the £10K guesses, you can all pay me £20k for my one then....

Well this thread is tragic

That cover is cringe.

I had a V6 manual. The box isn’t very nice.

Like I said still a good time. In my Westfield I can do a 2:14.5. Loads of places I could be faster if I was a better driver. So to do the same ish time in something weighing 200 more kg is awesome.

While I like these, its a bit of a ball ache having one in the way of you being under the car. I want a 2 post lift really. Shame they are so dear.
