I've offered to sell him mine.
Anyone would think he's got something against dirty diesels!

Yeah, and I saw how much he was quoted for it, definitely not worth doing.

Looks lovely the question is will this stay with you longer than the previous 960.
Got to admit I was really tempted with it being not far from me but just didn't has a use for it

You did?.. Oh, I'll go look.

Yes but did you also see how much Piper have said they'll charge to reprofile the standard cams?.. £350+vat, they can turn them into fast road cams..

Hope so Pete, tbh the last 960 was horrible when I got it as it had been stoved in at the front and there was lots of stuff broken, with this pretty much everything works already (bar the spongy clutch), the only reason the 960 went was because it got side swiped by a BMW and I ran out of patience with it in the end.

You couldn't stay away, could You? :)

Lol.. I did try, but this one was too nice to pass up. I just have to make enough money now so I can hang onto it..Yes I'll be doing R front end and something with the back end. I'd like to go wide body on it but that'd be a very long term thing.
Car is only two owners and has 125k on it (so barely run in lol)
