I really like that, remeber one from an issue of Banzai i bought in an Airport a while back, very cool.
(Hoping to avoid Off-Topic) But what about the Imp?!

Sweeeeeet!  Seems an excellent purchase - what kind of work do you reckon you'll have to do to the engine? Is it actually a blown gasket, or just lack of use? Bet you're happy to be back in one though |

Tidy looking car! There was a good article on these in Retro Cars. Apparently 200bhp is possible! I'd like to hear that! |

Noice car!

I got referred to it and it was on facebook of all places! Who looks on facebook for a car! Well my friend obviously Will head for 150bhp I think, should be pretty nippy and nice and reliable don't worry, the imp will get finished |

I remember them when they were new, nice little cars.
It brings back memories of some youth near us who had one and used to thrash it to death, he tried many a time to race me home from work when I had my Sunbeam Lotus and he could never understand why my car was much quicker than his new pocket rocket.
Good to see another after so long and I guess it will put a smile on ya face when driving it.

Ace to see you've got it home now J, looks good in white,
How much did it cost in the end to get it trailered?

A massive £75!
Infact big props to the transport company, very effective indeed, competitive quotes, good communication, prompt. I can't really give them enough praise considering it would have taken at least a day and a lot more money for me to complete the same task!

Hmm, Insurance..... Might have to wait till Christmas when I will be 25, its not that I cant get insured or that it will be particularly expensive but there is very little choice of insurers to the under 25 year old for a heavily modified classic policy once I am 25 there will be much more choice, so there is a possibility it will be the Primera at Donnington  And I will therefore get the curse word ripped for having a track car on the driveway and an everyday commuter on the track  |
