I drove this car a while back for a GT feature. It was a wet November day and on slippery country roads, which made stepping the back out as easy as. I'm sure we didn't insure it for £650k so I'm glad I didn't bend it :shock:

The car is blistering quick and surprisingly strong for a 2 litre. He had an awful unknown ratio set up in the gearbox which left a hole between 2 & 3, but if you held 2nd gear to 8,500rpm you could avoid the hole :wink:

Shame Andrew is selling it - I hope it stays in the UK.
