    Unfortunatly I can't be which is a shame cos I think it would be a great op to get underneath the new car and check her out.

    Enjoy your day guys!

    So Stuarts spent alot of time and money in the car to make it what it is.

    I have seen the car but not been driven in it but I've heard and watched it disapear into the distance.

    It is a wonderful piece of engineering and shows us all what can be done to most of our cars. we should all have a look and learn from what kinda performance can be got from a T5.

    Regards

    Iain

    It is the quickest car I have ever been in bar none.

    Not sure it suits the daily driver though.
