Not a very good advert if it's going to appear in the For Sale Section at all in the future LOL

Seriously for a moment that looks like a risky place to stand........... on the hard shoulder !!!!!

The engine started to make a tapping noise, then started to make a metallic grinding noise, which is when I stopped. Turned out one of bearings had gone. I have got a new engine and should be ready for action by the end of the week. But what a car, I love type R's even though its costing me £2450 to insure the thing.

Ray_li it cost me £14500, took me nearly 6 months to find a clean black one. Very nice example of a rapid car.
