Webbo Unregistered W	As a subscriber of Practical Performace Car Magazine I emailed them a month or so ago to inform them of a change of address. At the same time I attached a few pictures of my car. Anyway I got an email from them today asking for more high-res pictures and details of the car. They are interested in adding it to the Readers' Cars section so it wont be a big piece, just a couple of pics and a paragraph or two I might post a new thread with links to some of my pics and maybe do a poll on which I should send $\:\)$

Webbo Unregistered W	Made it into this month's edition. Page 1 Page 2 The last paragraph is incorrect, I said that it made 280bhp before the turbo boost controller, not before the turbo but there you go $\:\)$ Last edited by Webbo; 30/10/2008 09:39. Reason: better scans

Webbo Unregistered W	Yeah it looked awful though. The turbo and clutch were known to be dead and it obviously needed new belts, brakes and a complete overhaul. The interior looked like Mars or something - there was a layer of mould and mushrooms growing on everything so I convinced the owner a whole new interior would be needed, luckily it scrubbed off pretty easily $\:D$ Probably spent about £2000 getting it back up to scratch but I was happy knowing that most parts were newish.
