Is this the one with a full page E30zone ad?

If so what issue is it? April? I was meant to get that one, will have to see if it's still on sale.

Congrats on getting your cars, er, "featured" :)

I took one of the photos used in the feature. The one of Bens (Bootyman) car.

Think I should hassle Unity Media for copyright infringement :cry:

Yes, it's there in the distance!

Chris, are you coming down to the next rolling road day, I would love to see what the car is putting out now after all the work I had done to it. I didn't run it at the last rr day as it hadn't long been rebuilt.

It's about half an hour further than Stoneleigh, you must come along, I'll be driving up from South Wales, early start for me too! It's always a great meet!

I've got some great news too, the cruise stalk arrived today, bad news is, it's from a pre 88 and has the different connector.....I am at the end of my tether with this cruise system... :x
