That car always concerns me. I guess it's to do with chopping cars around to that extent. Not sure on the quality of the build of that one??

most 4 door limousine versions built by the main companies such as colman milne and wilcox are central door, its only when you get a six door that you have doors at the back mate which most are now unfortunatly.

I saw it last year a Central Day at the Pod, it was getting 22sec + 1/4 times and timed out on a few runs it was so slow.

The bodywork was completely fucked on it too, ripples everywhere, paint flaking off and you could see the welds along the sills.
