I stumbled across this BMW Car mag from 1994 the other day and having a flick though spotted this and there is not a great deal of info about Stannard Motors and his conversions i thought it would be helpful to scan and post it up.

Might be worth adding to the wiki as well.

I can see one zoners car in this 20 year old feature!

I met the guy with the tech 1 a few years ago. Sold him an interior.he was a nice chap.
I wonder if he ever finished the car or owns it still?

Nice find intresting reading.Them stannard coversion made a serious fast car, looking at the full cooking model 0 to 100 in around 15 seconds made it quicker than a sierra cosworth. Even today it would be no slow coach. :cool:
