We are off tomorrow to get our Duratech remapped at Williams, could be an interesting ride going by the weather forecast.

What's the story behind the swap, Ray..? . Old age, health problems looking for something with less age related problem s in the future. Then last week out on o local run got cought out on a narrow up hill section of country lane,Pratt ln a people carrier refused to move over, after a squeeze past clutch started burn and slip. After a lot of thought decided this was the time to move to pastures new.
.+8 Now gone for a 1800 4/4. Duratec in bright yellow.

I know I’m biased, but 1.8 4/4s are huge fun. Well, certainly on the minor A roads and B roads that I tend to use.

Ray, I thought you would make the move.
Sensible decision for the long run.
The 1.8 is a good mover....look at the Taffmog Surrey section for an example!
Lynne was certain she saw a yellow Morgan a few days ago turning into your street!
Been away for the weekend so will call in to inspect.......

Interesting to hear about your experience with this engine after owning a +8. I ownly had a test drive with 1,6 4/4 before I i bought my 1,8 4/4 duratec. So I don`t have any experience... But I like my Duratec
2005 4/4 1800ccm Duratec and a lot of HONDA CX500.......

It has taken me 7 years and no less than 13 different ECU tunes to tweak and refine mine. It’s a delight to drive now and whilst I’ve been recently looking at exchanging it for a +4 there is a voice in the back of my head saying, don’t be a silly boy….
