Believe me you wouldn't want to own it!!!! No one ever wanted to drive it to the shows, and we'd all rather drive one of the vans than that. It had a permanently flat battery, was painfully loud and had a properly dodgy interior. The gearknob would come off in your hand and one of the guys nearly fell out of it when the door flung open on a roundabout!
Me, I lusted after the Fiat twin cam powered Skoda Rapid in two tone yellow and black that Matt Howell made when he was at Street Machine magazine. I was given the opportunity to buy it without the engine when i worked on Revs and always regretted not taking him up on the offer.
