Hi Ian, I see the old viscous fan raised its ugly head again.

Seems it\'s a replica with no history.
Lot of money for 230hp approx.
There\'s a norwegian one for sale too,DONT look at it,the site attacks your computer!
ta stu..

I thought a peripheral port motor would have a lot more go than 230hp would it not be 50-60 HP short

Hi All, you guys have been busy I go on hols for a week and come to 100\'s of posts on this theard alone, well thats most of today gone then.
  Don welcome to being an owner, I\'m only over the river in Essex, so not that for away, must now get the clutch fitted, then may venture into bandit country.

Hi mate, thanks for the welcome, let me know if you want to drag yourself out of the homeland, and pay a visit to the Garden of England, I will be taking delivery of TMX next week, and would welcome anyone who might spare 5 mins to look her over and offer some advice. I do a nice cup of Earl Grey for the posh among us, and PG for the commoners.

Doesn\'t seem to be a big following for 1st gen over here i think problem was with weather so wet the rust problem was exaggerated i know of a few cars in enniskillen area i was more interested in the rotary engine aspect of it from a rallying back ground but when i bought my car more so to get my hands on the engine end of things the car is that good it would be a sin to abuse it i have posted on Irish forum   but got no reply s and that is why i   use this forum.

I haven\'t seen a white arched 1st gen but will keep a eye out gary

[don wyatt]

Is there one on here, cant see one, if not shouldnt there be one ??

would like to see some nice clear close up shots of members rides ?

:bandit (no;

[syebba]

It would be a good idea to do a sticky thread with pics of members cars.
The 2nd & 3rd gen sections do this.

[A7RXY]

just for you Don to make you want to keep it.

[CHC (RIP)]

Here\'s before & during shots Gringo - notice a difference

:yes

[Ian65]

Already on the list but A206 WGN is on the move again.... on ebay now.

[don wyatt]

Ah yeh, very cool.

The steering wheel is in a slightly different position, and the clock is reading a different time. You guys are dealing with one smart rrrse here you know.

Don.
