Relieved is my thought - I was very aware that 'good' examples are nearer 7500 - so going in mid point did concern me. I was expecting it to be untidy underneath so was amazed that it is so good under there and mechanically there is very little wrong with it. i.e. need to change the steering pump as it's leaking - cheap as chips for a replacement. And will have the belts done shortly for piece of mind. Need to replace one wheel stud - luckily they knock out and a replacement is

Nice work there chaps and the dyno run sounded good, had to chuckle about the gutless comment

Now get cleaning that enginebay and letting the genie give it the once over !!

Damn they are quite nice but I don't think they have quite the impact of the gold colour you have now mate.

White car, black or grey wheels look hardcore. Depends it you want to toughen it up, or show off the Revs. I d go dark, but each their own mate. At least you can compare easily now.

I think both colour's look good but i think i would edge toward the darker colour
