	Gents and ladies, I'm looking for info on THAT R4. You know the one I mean. I think it was Bob Pike's. I'm itching for a similar treatment on my 16ts.

	No further info but a mate of mine had a R4 and I never really wanted one until then. Amazingly I had to drive it home for him as he couldn't master the dashboard gear lever without a ton of practice. Cool little car.

	I love the way that some cars get infamous, the highest accolade being simply "THAT car"
