Not ebay special Pete, they left a note on the windscreen at a car show. They said it only had about 5000 miles on it when they replaced it with a red motor. When we looked at it to pick up it was in a shed.......obviously it hadn't been there the whole time. Dean.

Finally, the car went down and had it's blue slip inspection done today. I was relieved when the guy rang and said it had passed. I will try to get some recent pics of the transformation later in the week (when I take some)....lol. Dean.

Good one Dean, finally decided whether to go grey or red
is the taxi getting the red now, sounds lumpy
how about a clip with some revs so we can hear the note.
