I forgot I had another video too...this time in Switzerland, I was driving to work last March with the radio playing. It was a sunny day but we still had snow on the ground...I had the rattling fixed, I thought it was the rear seat but it turned out to be something hitting the underside of the car.

Sadly this car is now up for sale again as the new owner can not afford to keep a second car anymore.

The car is now stored with me on Anglesey.

Anyone interested in this car please contact me.

Talking

regarding those performance figures, any idea how Amazon Cars did the test.. surely not on a rolling road? or a GPS performance meter?

I once borrowed a friends GPS meter for my B18 Amazon which at the time was wearing twin 42DCOE carbs and a K cam.. best I managed was 11.5s 0-60mph, trying not to spin the wheels was tough, didn't really like 'driving it like I stole it'.. something might break.. but nothing did
