Default Andy's 340bhp Saff...
October 1st is the date when Andy's (Spalding RS0C group) Cossie comes off the road for winter, so Saturday afty we went and had a play down the local power station approach road in it.

Basically car is an '88 RWD Saphirre Cosworth with a Harvey Gibbs 340bhp conversion, 330mm APs, Gaz coil overs etc etc







During this sprited standing start he fried the clutch, so now has an excuse to fit a better one.



I'd not driven it since it's had the SCS 340 conversion, it's a bit tail happy now to say the least.

Here's me gingerly setting off...



I'd love to say I was coming round the bend fully sideways in 3rd.. but.... well I can dream can't I?..lol! You can hear the clutch slip when I go up to 4th.
