im certinaly not chav simon, not B Cap for me mate! Im not the type to go to cruise's, just enjoyed trackdays, they were good cars, for my age i could just about insure them, and fix them when i broke them with ease, easy to rebuild the engine and tinker about with them.

It was the latest model. It was just the fact that I didn't have to pay for tyres. Really learnt some good car control with that car. I know that sounds stupid but it was a good way to learn about weight distribution, cadence braking etc...

I usually don't modify my cars. When I get tired of them I buy something else. Was that obvious perhaps...
