mmmm, when you going? I was planning to head down on May 20th anyways.
There is plenty more in the turbo, only does 1.4/1.5bar top end, don`t know how much more the engine would cope with though!

Got a prov date from Paul so will drop you a PM.
Paul will be able to tell you how far to take it before it becomes stepping on eggshells situation. Would be gd for you to take her down the strip at Pod to see what she does.

Got borded and went to the weighbridge to get an accurate weight of the car.
My "Lardy" newage weighed in at 1360kg, quite happy with that! That is with minimal fuel, no sub (13kg) but full interior.
In pod trim she will be around 1340kg, rear seats and spoiler etc removed. Around 1400kg in full road trim with a full tank.

If you can make it to the pod when Jag goes then do so, i had the pleasure of being taken for a pax ride in the 1, when i met him briefly last last to buy his old Prodrive backbox off him.
All i can say is wow, i dont think i will ever get to feel acceleration like that again unless i get taken for a spin in a F1 car!!!!!
