Isn't that one of the Ripp Brothers cars?

Maybe Jason's? iirc I think it was sold to a lad and the turbo gave up on the way down one day and got replaced shortly at SCC

Then again I maybe wrong!

Maybe but owning a German built car and previously owning Fords doesn't stop us from having a little bit of banter now again does it? Maybe Aduz does take it a bit far but thats for himself to regulate or the Mods

It's beyond me why anyone would spend so much on a paint job that looks so dire.... it screams out "scratch me" and when it is scratched its well expensive to get it sorted.

Probably why its been for sale for ages.... cos everyone's of the same opinion.

I may be completely wrong, but im sure Paul Ripley knows the car? He knows Jason Ripp who used to own the car before i think? It was originally Xtremes demo car IIRC

EDIT: Not sure if that is the same car now, sure ripp's had a smooth boot and poss WRC kit...
