Enjoy

A great video

Its now been a decade since I was last in a Coupe, but watching yours fly around the ring has got me looking for another one...

Buy one now!

You can certainly see the difference from 3 to 5k, looks like Flea did a great job with the midrange. Also good work getting the oil temps down from the run last year. Was that a combination of oil and the exhaust wrap or mainly just the wrap do you think?

That was an enjoyable watch and looked like Misha was enjoying himself. Looking forward to round 3

Yeah I asked flea for maximum torque rather than power

I think it’s the heat wrap and the larger cooling duct for the oil cooler Ash that kept oil temperatures lower.

I use a 10-50w oil (full PAO ester)

Round 3, well I’m going to Cadwell Park in October

Good vid Jamie.

Are you still using the EBV?

I am, but not the original pierburg unit

Gosh Jamie, that was fab.

Your car seemed so smooth and FAST.

Best wishes

Great video car handled well and sounded great, I was there a few years ago it's a track you just have to drive at least once in your life 😀

Fabulous video Jamie, and great to talk to you yesterday at the AGM.

I've watched this in two halves, in between I had the pleasure of actually being in it, Jamie being good enough to give me a lift to the AGM venue from Derby station

It's not quite the same car as when I saw it back in Glasgow when it belonged to its illustrious previous owner but I'm sure the latter, with his meticulous attitude to ownership, would be impressed by the condition of it now - the ride (albeit at more modest velocity than the video) is really taut and the suspension excellent; no crashiness, even devoid of the usual squeaks and rattles from the interior.

Needless to say, it can kick out some punch

Cheers Simon

A real treat to see this footage- and kudos to you Jamie, for not only doing this, but committing to going to the time and expense upgrading the car for its 2nd outing and taking it back to across to Germany.

What a great advert of what/how these coupes can go. And it real good that Misha clearly like the design and the look.

I had Joe give mine a mid life mini lifesaving restoration and then at his suggestion had Mr Flea remap mine-I'm around 20bhp under yours but like you went for the torque.

Hat's off to you-and I noticed that you had a pretty rattle free interior too from the footage.

Really great to see this attitude and pro-Coupe video- brill!

I’d like to put a proper diff in it, but I’ll see how the funds are next year

Find a recent Misha video, where he goes around the ring in a huge 1970s Cadillac, with wings and loads of chrome.

Oh, and THREE hubcaps.

Yeah with scary amounts of understeer

Cheers Jamie
