Good article and pics! The sentence that starts "A new six-speed manual gearbox arrived in 1998..." is confusing however, and your coolant bottle needs a clean! One thing I never knew however was Flea's real name

Nice article. Someone has just posted up a photo of Simons Bee coupe on the thread. Thanks for the heads-up Joe Wonder who posted it, and moreover, how they got that angle.... unless it was from the top deck of the no.5 But its windows must have been pretty clean!

they originally said in that article that the 6 speed box came out in 1999, not 1998. So maybe it was changed due to some comments I made.
However they say that the 8 spoke alloys came out in 1998. To my knowledge the plus wasn't produced until late 1999/early 2000?
also the boisterous torque steer comment? I've experienced real torque steer in much lesser circa 200bhp fwd powered hatchbacks compared to my 350bhp coop. Even know i would called the torque steer minimal at a push.

Even if they're not totally correct, all these articles popping up can only be good for coupe values!

I think Petrolicious is mainly US so they may struggle to source a car. Would be ace though!
