Here's a few recents pics for you mate, it's a bit different to how it looks in my sig







It's stage 3 mate, 352bhp on the Reyland rollers. Not sure what it's worth but it would have to be a bloody good offer to make me sell up.

They are like rocking Horse..

Ive searched for just the car and in the end settled for a Small T Imperial, then i sold that as i wasnt fully happy and craved some power..

Ive had a few RS's since yet always looked for the BIG T IMPERIAL and never seen a decent one forsale!!!


I NOW OWN A BIG T, IMPERIAL, 2 OWNERS, MINT and oh.... 511BHP



Keep looking mate, but it could be a long one!


I believe Duncan at Automotive knows of one that has been coming up forsale for a while, so maybe drop him aline?

Good Luck

Maybe worth tracking down, as if its as clean as looks and the mileage is pretty low like he says, its worth a hell of alot more than £14K!!!!! Guys full of shite!

hello mate yeah i cant seem to find nothing apart from the small turbo version but im not keen on the engine either so would only settle of a big turbo imperial lux with black leather.. ive checked that site out already mate but i cant seem to find cars for sale as the classifields where empty and could only add things to sell so must be doing something wrong?? in the end i just settled for the games lol!!

It's the catch tank for the breather system mate, not a standard part as they usually have the airbox there.
