Im always grabbing him at meets and wasting his evening chatting, and I even had quite a big input in the decision to go nitrogen push for his nitrous system, I think I nagged him for about 2 years till he finally got my point when it ran in the wet and had to delay when the nitrous came on, but TBH I would actually have no interest in owning it myself, cause I have no use for it, I dont want to go top speed runs myself and on the road I wouldnt want to be doing the speeds you need to in order to enjoy it.

So I mentioned cars I would want to own, but in terms of cars to follow the progress of, I'd definately have Rod's on the list, and Luca's fiesta too.

I reckon the list should be for regular driven cars so that rules out rods car as its not run in a year or so and by the time steve fixes the 4i it will be on display at beaulieu like in the movie demolition man under the glass floor

Fair enough but someone posted a pic of the front of the car and it looked like I'd drove all the way there at 150 judging by the amount of dead insects that were on the bumper and grille.
