A 94' Sprite and a 83 Sprite are two different beasts.

Yep, definitely an '83 Sprite that I want....although that '94 Sprite sounds a bargain!

TVR was running 36 degrees advance at 4000rpm, jeeeeez no wonder why it was pinking. Rolling road must have cut it pretty close on the timing side for maximum power

Some little buggers nicked my nice shiny dust caps. Anyone know if Minispares ones come as a set of 4 or are they sold individually?

That's the annoying thing, they were nothing fancy - just some shiny jobbies that came with the wheels!
