The strange thing is it wasn't an impulse purchase, he pondered over it for longer than the time he has owned some cars 
. I still wouldn't bet on him turning up to Combe in either of those T4's or even a Volvo for that matter .
Just think it works out at less than £10 per BHP to get over 500 BHP, I wonder how much it would be and how many Honda's you would need to get that

Nice Mo 
The T4's are growing on me. Was surprised that one wasn't snapped up sooner, seemed like a lot of car for the money.

Can't find a link tho.

I'd be amazed if Mo doesn't buy it
It's got one hell of a heritage, and was one mean little motor

That's right. Scottish Jacq's car. I think Ross put all the history up. MTE too! Wonder what the price will be? Thousands spent on it! That performance is going to frighten a lot of competition! !

Muhammad, you should get Tim to combine the two engines and make you a T4 V8, or T8
By the way, don't suppose you came across a padlock key? - I left it in the small centre console cubbyhole, but it has a tendency to fly out of there and land under one of the front seats if you accelerate hard......
