i was well pleased! it drives so much better when it first went on the rollers chris heard a nasty rattle as he put it and was unsure about running it but it turned out to be a nosiey alternator! my mate took his s1 as well, but wasnt as lucky the big ends started knocking badly so his runs were cut short so he could still drive the car home!!
