HS should be enough! plenty of power for a tin can on wheels! Always wanted one back when I was running around in my ol' 1.2 litre Chevette E

Nope! The HP is far better!

I had forgotten how good and nippy they are, and as for the handling? WOW!

So......

Car is going really well now...

It does 120MPH +, with the 131BHP and a 5 speed connected to a 3.70:1 LSD rear.

Chirps the tyres in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, Not 5th though!

Is really rust free, And I mean really!

Handles fantastic, this thing is on rails, I swear.

Best bit is, I am using it every day, 70 miles a day.

All this fun for three an a half grand? Makes you think dunnit?

How often does the Dodge come out?

Anyway... well pleased, would like to think it's a keeper, the club reckon only 50 left now.

What other overlooked fun cars are out there I wonder... New thread?

I await the torrent of abuse!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are we going to get any photos of this motor then?

Jeff · Post by **Jeff** » Sat Dec 17, 05 8:31 pm

I am far to busy driving it! I haven't got time to take pictures! I have done over 400 miles this week!

It is far too dirty to take pics... You will have to make do with the one I posted earlier.

I keep looking at it, and all my paint

I have just taken more orders for some helmets and bike stuff! I have NO time at all now what with work as well.

Hi Jeff,

I found this in the batch of old 'Motor' magazines. I thought you might be interested.

It is a two page ad. In a later issue there was a condensed one page ad version.

All the best
