The van was my run around until this week when the tax running out and a dead fuse box put an end to that.

Now the mk 1 has a longer spec:

Iv had the car since i was 14 when it was just a bare shell and have progressed as iv gone along. im 22 now and have been using the car since i passed my test!

Its a pinto lump but has a stage 3 head, 38 DGAS carb, Group 1 rally cam, 4 speed rocket box with quaife internals, has the 1.1 back axle still lol and is built soley for street racing and traffic light wars. Its running at 160 at the moment and the only stat i have is a 6.7 0-60 from when i had a go at the sprint at donny a couple of years ago. its not as fast as some modern cars but when you consider its a 1972 model then it pretty quick for its age! she is fun and a good drive but im affraid quite un reliable.

As for the people rippin my chavalier, blow me!

It got me out of a sticky situation and is a good runaround thanks very much :D
