The more I think about it, the better an idea it is. Think about it: 2 liter NA pushing 240Bhp revving to 9K. It's not so very different from BDA - but will do it all day and still get you home.. I fucking love that car. (Just change the interior to classic brown 70s Ford and I'm happy. Edited January 26, 2018 by Flerbizky 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fixed free of charge. I'm pretty sure most of us here would know by heart, that anything that revs higher than your grandpas old tractor running on cooking oil will need oil changes and topping up People who buy something that revs to 9K and does not know how to look after it deserve it. It's not a friggin' Yaris. Edited January 25, 2018 by Flerbizky Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just doing some googling, it seems that there was a Jap only nissan pulsar (vz-r n1), a 1600, with 200hp and was out before the S2000, which takes the title for non-exotics. There's a fair few italian & german supercar engines that sneak above it, but they'll be making power rather than torque/litre as they've got enough litres to be playing with I guess. Obviously, bike engined kit cars beat them all comfortably. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Richy 1,463 Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Bought a Passenger Side mirror for a VW T5 RHD van, a Drivers Side mirror arrived for a LHD van (different size. shape of glass) but had to fit it due to van going to Ireland, so got onto them and they ignored me so left them bad feedback. they got on to me saying they will give me a £10 refund if I change the feedback from bad to good! But I don't think you can change it, so do I take the £10 first then tell them I cant change it? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's what the advert in 5 years will add on to the listing after it's sat in a shed since the buyer found it messes up his hebtroco trousers when he rides it to the organic produce stall for his ethically farmed avocados. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
