Hi all,

I bought a 20vt coupe from Joe at FCSS a year and half ago now, I was wondering if anyone knows anything about this car, or if someone owned it in the past, or maybe someone worked on it and did some upgrades to it?

The reg is R576DWL, it's a blue ink 20vt with tan interior, sunroof, zender kit, blueflame exhaust and allegedly makes 300+ hp (and kinda feels like it).

Please share antyhing that you know about it smile

Sorry don't know the car, it is surprising given the ratity of these cars how many are not known on this site. Posts like yours are quite common but seldom get a reponse, I didn't with mine and it's got a club badge on the windscreen. If you look at the 'spotting' thread it's depressingly similar.
I guess people who have had them move perhaps as result of a bad experience and don't want to look back, that said it's amazing how many of us keep coming back, they're a bit addictive!

This one has a FCCUK badge on the quarter light aswell, so I was hoping in someone knowing a bit more.

Understandably those things back in the days were worth nothing, so people were just buying them to trash them around for a bit and then ditch them.

As far as Joe told me, the last owner sadly passed away, he did had it for quite a while, but there are 3 previous owners before him. i was also very curious about the mods done to it, because the clutch feels like has been upgraded, the shifter has been shortened, the turbo is definitely upgraded (i think a T28 is been fitted), but that's all you can see by eye, so i don't know if anything else has been done to it.
