And you are going to take this car and make a marter out of it !! LMAO Classic !

You should have listened to me though and taken the 2.8 V6 mfi XR4i, much more tourque for drifting ! !

That would have cost over £200, I need a car less than £200 for the Crumball and Barcelona Rally.

Now that I have the car I can spend what I like on it, which means I is looking for a rusted to fook Land Rover with a 4.0 v8 £100 ish.

The 4.0 v8 will go in with a bit of a hammer job to the sides. :cheesy:

Well it made it home ok from Burnley after 110miles, but it didn't last another 30 miles as I've just completely killed the clutch. :cheesy:
Just had to get a toe home off a m8. So I need new clutch and petrol tank for starters.
BUT its a mint drifter and car appears to be spot on. :cheesy:

clutches are dead easy on them, and i reckon you could repair the fuel tank, you can buy a fibre glass repair kit from halfords or just use some chemical metal

He could, but most motor factors have new tanks in as old stock... so for like £20 he can get a new tin can for his pete'rol ! ! !
