Anyone want to swap a couple of laps driving a track car I have been offered for somewhere off-road to park it?

I can't think of anywhere I could keep it???

err, just need rid of the astra pile, then yeah. i live in bradford on avon tho, not brizzol

does it run??

if so we could stick it on the grass until the astra is gone, i just to take out the front seats then get a hiab to collect it for free, then can put the track car (what is it?) on the concrete.

oh, how long is it gonna need to be there? cos i wont be living there foe ever lol.

Bradford is fine - Kinda on the way to Coombe , the only place I will take it I expect.

It's a 2.0 Saph, so nothing special - but strip it, weld the diff up, fit some skinny tyres and I'm sure it'll be a laugh

It'll be there until we:

a) Stuff it into the tyres at Quarry,

or

b) Throw it away because I have nowhere to store it

I know, and I know. V6 would be good, but not trying to win races, should just be a giggle. I know some muppet with Cossie running gear lying around anyway...
