sport 160 throttle body? £100

Induction kits are around that too.

If you've never been on track before the 1 hour Knockhill instructor session is a laugh....its £90.

Good to see what the car can do and gives you the confidence to attack a trackday and not wee yourself :D
Focus ST estate, i3s and more pushbikes than strictly necessary.

....did i ever tell you about the Evora and VX220 i used to own?
