They bought it to drag race it and they have been taking it to the Pod quite regularly. Being disappointed with the times, they are thinking of moving it on.

A speculative bid has been placed

good man you know it makes sence to get it back mate, cheap motoring.
what engine does it have in it now then?
what times was it doing down the pod then?

Not sure that they will see up but time (and cash) will tell. In terms of engine it will be the 24v and as for times, I have no idea, but I think they were expecting something special. It was never going to produce anything 'quick' as it was all about corner speed on tracks. If you relied on straight line puff, you would be well and truly knackered.

Talk of another car, Sierra or otherwise, is best reserved for another thread

well i hope your able to get it back mate.

a 24v cosworth can do a 0-60 in 7sec and 0-100 in about 17seconds and in your super light shell those time should come down.

Done the deal and swapped it for something a bit different. Will post something about the new one when I can be arsed.

My money was on the MX5 and the tight t-shirt and aviators, But I guess that will suffice

What mods have you got planned for it?

Fuck all wrong with Vitara's!! You're all bastards

Anyway, I do have a MX-5 coming but that is for Tan (honest)

I hasten to add, the one Rob has posted is not the exact colour.
