Just spied it on the shelf in Tescos on my usual hunt for Banzai / Jap Performnce this afternoon. Offshore for a month again next Wednesday so banished to the kit bag until I go away agin.

....looks bloody interesting though, must resist. came Across an old copy of Rogues 2.2 stroker build in a back copy (Mike Collins?) so will maybe read them both next month I'm away.

1025 doesnt seem that impressive to me
maybe if it has a full interior?

I dunno about that. Over 200kg is a lot to loose from a car that dosent have much in it anyway I think.

Not a full interior.

Carpets, dash and a small stereo install.

Has lighter seats and no roof lining or door cards. Fairly heavy duty cage fitted too which will keep the weight up.
