What a8wpg Had To Say
Absolutely chuffed to bits as the car has not been on the scene since the end of January due to a 'saving induced' layup, and hassle from the insurers over the (then) planned supercharger mod. This too has kept my presence on the forum to a little less than I like to say the least. The competition was great too and everyone deserves a well done for their rides.
It's fantastic to have won this too as I only put her back on the road on 15th August & recognition etc has been awesome.
Thank you to everyone who voted & it's great to be back......
