Unhappy

Greg, were you thinking of spending $53,000 plus shipping, duty, and VAT before getting your drivetrain components to a workshop in the UK. Then presumably a few more tens of thousands on fitting those and uprating everything else on the car to suit ??

Certainly was not , even with a lottery win !. I happen to be quite fond of the ratty diesels because of the awesome torque delivery. Big HP figures don't really do it for me.

Will give you a bell soon.

PS anyone got a spare torqueflite ? broken one of mine :-( Wont have reverse
