Super Sticky Slicks
Sierra XR4X4 vented Discs all round

I had a 2b kit and I must say I agree. The shoddy video and poor design with the bodge what you can did it for me. I sold it. I wish I had done more research and bought an MK indy. Good luck fella I cant wait to see that engine in place.

The robin hood factory is directly opposite where i work, They turn quite a few out from when i see.

They put a HDi lump in one the other week, well it sounded exactly the same as the HDi engine's and was chugging some black smoke out the back, lol

you're on boughton are ya? One of my customers is on that industrial estate? Ever see soem huge crop sprayers flying around....

To be fair, Robin Hood are w*nkers!! but i seem to eb doing ok, and cossie lumps, carl, vary hugely in price depends who ya get it from, what day it is, and even wind direction, but generally 1k for a shagged std one, to 2k for a good standard one!
