As an aside, I don't think Mr Clarkson was very impressed by the VW twincharger he drove recently http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/articl ... 07,00.html

( doesn't seem impressed by Corwall either :lol: )

LOL at Clarkson, though he did get told off yesterday for describing a car as 'a bit gay'!

Tom, it should be in early January, as you say he now has his chargecooler and all bits, I am just saying that is the cut off for my patience!

Let's just say the SECOND engine builder looks likely to be replaced by a THIRD. Being several KKKs down the line and still not finished isn't making me a happy bunny either. :pale: :clown:

LOL I'm sure you do. I'm feeling financially sore and a bit pi$$ed off with the whole thing at present. If and when I move it it will go to someone I can 100% trust and who for once gets on with it.
