If it's the weekend it must be new car buying day. It's blue, it's beautiful and its mine. 1360cc, big valve 8 port head, twin 40's. Built by ex Peugeot rally team mechanic. Supposed to be about 100bhp at the wheels! Certainly goes like it!    |

That's quite a find...well done! Do the numbers 175, 50 and 13 mean anything to you?  |

Thought it might end up as a "proper" rally car, but it seems a shame so it may well stay street.
Needs a bettere exhaust (OMP make one). Don't like Minilites on this car, I prefer the origianl Amil 5 spokes. I have a spare set of white motorsport rims to go on it. 6inch fronts with 185/60 Yokos and 5.5's on the rear with 175/60 Yokos. Can't go any wider on the rear without hammering out the wheel arches and cutting rear chassis back a bit!
Will also eventually get decent suspension and brakes. If it handles as well as my Samba Rally car then it will be one huge grin.
At the risk of upsetting the Mini boys (again), it's sort of the French Mini Cooper!
;D

Keeping looking like it doesn (almost standard).
Give a Saxo VTS/206 GTi a shock at the lights.
Might not beat either of them ultimatly, but they sometimes need a shock to wake them up.
