Good Question! Not sure myself yet, my uncle is a mechanic so he looked at it and picked it up for me today. Don't get to see/drive it for another month (GRRRR!)

Metro Turbo 4 pot breaks as well i believe, should act as a suitable parachute

I used to have those 7 x 13" alloys on mine as well, with metro turbo brakes, buckets, dash and 1293GT engine, spooky.

That clubman front has been added to that car as well, as they did'nt make them that late, a good looking mod that.

Heavy car mate, how much?

Yup the clubman front end was added later in the cars life! Turbo to be bolted on in the near future.
