Jings.

Great to see the old girl is still going and found a new home. She was great on track days especially on the Rallye Cross Stages. I am assuming that they replaced the engine and gearbox for you. Surprised to hear that they managed to straighten out the roof ok after the the old roll over incident (did they put vinyl on it?)

Ha Ha, I would say if you have already bought it, don't ask about the history beyond the usual HPI!

Welcome to the club.

Congrats on the new car, if it is fine for you forget the history beyond servicing an enjoy the loud pedal.

I was wondering about the vinyl roof right enough!!

LOL!! The car is mint, 19k miles, FMBSH, Hpi clear (i did it myself just in case) and it seems to have all the toys!
This will be my 4th "toy" car this year! i started off with the E92 M3 with Ap brakes and a full Evolve decat and re-map, then i got the Nissan GT-R 35, again a re-map and Miltek system, then after scaring the life out of me, too big, too fast, in the air or sideways all the time, but the biggest problem was its just too big for going up north, or the roads are too small, and its the kind of car you go EVERYWHERE at flat out, A big crash or big ban was looming!!

So i bought a X6 35 TT, needless to say i re-mapped it, DULLLLLL was not the word....

And now off the The C63!! (and yes, the re-map is booked already) ; )

I am hoping to keep this one for a few years as mrs H20 is getting a bit cross!!

Road test from Derby to Edinburgh Via the A701 to follow!!
