I am now the proud owner of a P1
Its defo a better chioce than a PPP'd classic!!!
Chassis is a lot stiffer. Better gearbox (same 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th gears of STI5 so it goes quite well ) Handling is a whole lot better. And of course that 2 door shell
Give me a shout sometime foz and I will take you out in her.
The mods on the P1 to date are:
Full group A exhaust system (Hayward and Scott)
AP 4 pots with 325mm Godspeed discs running Mintex 1144 pads all round with goodridge braided hoses at each corner.
Forge strut brace and dump valve.
Blitz boost guage.
B&M Quickshift top linkage.
Plus a couple of cosmetic mods.

The only mods the P1 had when I bought it was the morette twin headlight conversion.
Everything else I did to it. (They all came of the blue uk turbo I had before)
