I couldn't be happier spending what I earn hot rodding my toys and what a toy it is!

I find that the old club motto; "More than enough is barely adequate" fits most circumstances in life.

Looks fantastic JVS and all the upgrades are exactly what I'd have chosen if I had the money (and hadn't sold mine !)
Look forward to hearing how you get on with it drive

Not very green but neither are volcanos or forest fires, ah Mother Nature, maybe we can get her to pay a carbon tax?
