I only have an old one during testing last year when it had 60bhp less and it now spits flames on gear changes :proud:

Very nice to see one still going and used properly! :)

Dad & I used to have a 2.0 Si Montego for towing - I swear it got faster as it got older - as the body rusted away & got lighter!!! :D

Loving the door decals too :):D

Matt its an Austin Maestro, the reason you dont see them about is they rust faster than Mini's :)

Hopefully it'll make it to MiniWorld action day @ Combe this year

Building a new turbo for Gooony, which should move the torque curve up 500rpm and release some more ponys from the old engine :-
