oooh, I had one of those - full-fat Japanese import, which meant 240 bhp. it's bee through two mates since I had it, and I'd have it back in an instant. Just a shame it only bettered 30mpg when driving down off the alps!

This sits at 289bhp and 300lbs just now. Had a new flywheel and updated clutch fitted a few 1000miles ago to deal with it.It surprises a few people still as it handles well.
Its my 4th and least powerful one but it has alot of character.
Cheers for the comments on both

Just had a terraclean treatment done and was pretty sceptical about the whole thing but I must say it seems smoother and has better pick up low down! No better fuel economy which I'm disappointed about as it was one of the reasons I got it done but non the less a noticeable improvement.Winter steels with snowtrac 3's fitted as the bbs's have to be refurnished because of a few marks.Cant decide on powdercoating or wet paint .Due a service soon then might look at moving it on as the phase 3 s80's are growing on me
