haha.. barely started really.. got the shell, took the engine and interior out, shut the garage and hasnt been seen since lol. I want to finish the scrapheap properly first :) get her reliable as a road car, so i have only one project at a time :) this was the engine that was going to go in it, but change of plans meant it got sold way sooner than i was ready for it. plenty more where that came from though.

and yes that is lpg nozzle :) its a really nice car.

heck yeah LPG thats about the only way i could afford to run it, looking at 15mpg average

I just cant seem to get away from big estate cars at the moment.

Stu 110k miles and running like a dream and did an oil change today lol

Not sure the 4x4 is any more reliable than the calibra, just found the prop shaft oil seal on the gearbox is leaking :(
