Sammyh,
Your cunning plan to get Mike Wood to reveal anything of note has failed. You were hoping he'd get annoyed at the rumour and spill the beans were'nt you!

Does anyone else think Mike's statement has a ring of a government cover up

E.g

'Prodrive would like to state that absolutely nothing of note happened today...'

Cheers Phill C

In order to stop this getting out of hand over the weekend, I would like to state that nothing has changed and details of the STi Performance Package will be available very soon.

Regards

Mike

If the PPP doesn't happen, don't worry. EcuTek will get an STI going. They're already working on re programming the new age STI's ECU.

Cheers,

I'd like Prodrive to take my PPP money off me before Shell , the Missus,The Kids or Whitbread get their grubby hands on it LOL or even worse the undertaker

Are you at Donington Sunday ??

Tony

Is this all part and parcel of STi VII ownership? You had to wait for delivery, WR packs, what next?

I heard on my grapevine that they were going to bring out a .............. sorry dudes, you'll have to wait 6-8 weeks before i tell I'm sure you STi VII guys with patience of stone can wait

Sammy,
Sorry M8 cant divulge sorces, good or bad but you will see his name in the "o bitch ories" when I get hold of him LOL (I think It was just a wind up)

One source, who had always been positive about PPP happening soon went all coy and non commital which tended to comfirm the rumour of the death of PPP.

The rumour of the death of PPP is total B8LL8CKS so get saving, you've been warned

Tony
