    BLA BLA.Think I will go on the word of the engine builder rather then some old mad(YOU) eating farax and wrapped up in a blanket sitting by the electric heater in a nursing home cared for by some non tolerrant nurse

    But that was 2 years ago! Probably only had 4000ks then, another 2 and she's ready for a rebore.

    Besides, bits of paper don't mean its fast. On the road is where it counts.

    Oh, and to be certified as fast you need FF (F*cking Fast) number plates like the beama. :)

    You can buy independent rear suspension for these OHOS in US, appearently dramatically increase the handling.

    Those "Stock" front brakes?

    front rear conversion to brembo is about $5k, should fit with 17" rim. not sure if its worth the money, car is only light.
