I picked up Tomrx1s coupe yesterday. Very please with my purchase and had a cracking drive back from Southampton in her yesterday.

My first modification should give me a good gain on bhp per ton I reckon. I'm going to clean the crud off the dashboard

There has to be at least half a kg of dust. That, combined with clearing the leaves out from the front suspension turret area and ringing out the bonnet sponges I think I'll be into double figures weight wise.

Looks like a tasty car mate smile

Bit of a project though, save for the engine?

It's a cracking drive, very usable power.

Not loads to do, just tidying up really.
