Thanks. On Saturday, once I collect it from Flea, it's going straight to Joe at Trim Delux to sort out the front seats. smile

No, I want it to look standard on the outside and I'm not keen of having the bumper cut.

Winner = JimO laugh. Drop me a PM mate.

I calculated the winner by adding the difference of the bhp and torque together to see who would get the answer 0. However nobody did, but there are 3 of you that came out either +1 or -1. Of those, I chose the winner on the closest bhp figure.

See results here

Big thanks to Flea.

Jintel, have you worked out an accurate winner? smile If someone had guessed 403bhp and 175lb/ft, by your calculations that would be +100 + -100, which equals 0 therefore would have won.

I'd have added the differences but converted minus values to positive, but it probably comes out the same eitherway!

I was waiting for someone to post something like this. Your point is valid but a little pointless. Nobody knew how I was going to calculate a winner and everyone gave a sensible guess.

Jason even had a brief encounter with the Stig when picking it up... not that he recognised him without his suit and helmet on!
