Not read it all Steve but personally if funds,time and space allow it I think you should keep the 4i and stick a 24v in it. Buy a nice Moonstone 3dr and get it a nice genuine 350-360 bhp and you should be able to have fun with both of them and both be reasonably reliable.

I could for a lil while............then get it all sorted over a period of time that suits you. They are a bit more than just laying the rubber down imo history nostalgia and the looks it provides is pretty much out there on its own.
