obviously im not expecting it to perform anything like the scoob , im just after a smooth running engine with a little fun factor and reliabily and a nice v6 sound for good measure . dont forget im going more show than go with this project . so regular unleaded is good enough yeah ?

1, a quick google can tell you the answer

2, i would really hope/think us enthusiasts can point others with knowledge

you ask dumb *** questions open to the uk public to view

your actions are seen openly by the uk google in general

you dont help yourself one bit by actions taken in the past

or even it looks like in the future

am i being to blunt here or will i just say close the door upon leaving

if so, many appologies

the blue car should make a good base, it looks in good condition from the pics, are you putting a six speed in it?

Plus blokes love their cars so it has to be a she. Loving a he is homo.
InitialD's salvation is although it was a he ,he didn't love it or he wouldn't of shined it on.

yes mate they are 6 speed with a haldex 4wd system standerd bhp is 204 and shed loads of tq just chuck them in 6th at any speed and it will just pull away nice and smooth, as for the inside just look at any mk4 golf.

looks a nice one mr D hope it works out better for you than the scoob did
