Hi Richard,
That makes sense.
Could you not sell the baby and keep the car. On second thoughts, probably not a good idea.
Did Kev buy the car or is it still for sale?
If its still on the market it would be a fantastic opportunity for someone to buy a very fast car for little more than the standard variety. Many years ago, I too modded a Plus 8, to about 230bhp which seemed pretty fast to me then. I can only imagine how fast the car feels with nearly 300 bhp.
Thanks for the update.
Paul
