165bhp was on slipping RR @ the SE_2 Town & County day - not sure I would fully trust it - Ricky gave up after about 4 runs with 3 passengers - but agree a decent tune up will pay dividends.

Are you running around in my reg :wink: I'll be grassing you up to the old bill if I get a NIP :damnfunny - I have new road tax and MOT for you.

toxic frog? I used to do sprints and hillclimbs in a westfield hayabusa. I remember a car with a frog on the rollbar. Is yours the same one?

Wul - car never had a frog on rollbar (just letters), but had one on the rear panel. Maybe others with correct me.

All I can say is that Alan had me out in the new purchase last night and the man is a funking lunatic!!!!

For a car that is meant to be making only 165BHP - I can definetely say the car is fast enough and had the living daylights scared out of me!!!!

Seriously, the Frog puts out more than 165, more likely to be just a few of the 190 originals will have escaped from the stable. Nice car :thumbsup
