Yeah I know it makes it look a completely different car that's why I'm so pleased with them.

There has been this thought in my head of selling. I think it's just with being fed up with things going wrong, breaking etc. I had brakes sent 3 times wrong, I messed up with buying wrong wheels (quick check was wrong PCD), fuel pump packing in after putting in new tank. I suppose its just an old Ford but i love driving it so when it comes down to selling I doubt I will.

If my heart over rules my brain I really would like to turbo it. Been looking at Chaffe's V6 turbo and I'm keen to do it. It keeps it that little different from a YB

I know there's not many that colour so it can't be a bad thing.

Oh don't say that, my re-test is tomorrow haha
