I'm sure I've seen another car that looks like that :-k :wink:

What's being dropped into it? As standard tubby conversion, or something a bit saltier?

You still get them down there too then. Did it go by choice, or did the "recycle" it for you when your back was turned?

haha yeah
well funny you say that i test drove a friends gt4 the other day as it had a few minor issues and whilst on our return journey we got hastled by a teenager and his blonde mrs in a C4 sport,
The result in his words was it had a good old Hattoning and he was quite supprised with its ability to 4 wheel drift! plus his miss fire had gone
:lol:

its now one of our servises apparently "good old Hattoning" along side "Hatton valet parking"

Maybe a sideline in selling underwear too could be an idea.

Shouldn't be too long until you hit the hills again should it?
