Trev Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2013 It drives quite nice too, It definitely lacks the drivability of the 4age though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azza91 Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 engine bay is very tidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev Posted September 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 We had Peter Houlahan (owner of the bosses Bob Holden 82 sister car) at work the other day and of all the cars there he spotted this and said 'wow that's tidy' gave me a big grin. Also took a work colleague for a drive today and his response was 'I can't believe someone tried to scrap this' I really can't get over how clean it is.

B.L.Z.BUB Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Hoping that there is a cruise coming up in the next month. Is that a hint? Id be keen if I get mine done this weekend. Be good to do before I'm deployed to my new job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carbonboy Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Great work in the engine bay man, actually the whole car looks awesome. Probably the cleanest I've ever seen an xA-C engine bay! How is it with the automatic gearbox? Capable, suits the purpose? I've just never driven an automatic one that's all. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev Posted September 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 My 1st 82 (mrs 82 in my sig) is an auto so we drove that for years before the twinky conversion, they aren't bad but certainly are a lot better with a manual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev Posted July 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2015 Gonna sell this as it doesn't get used, hasn't for a while now and it just seems like a waste, pm me if you are interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
