I knew I should have stopped reading this thread agaes ago........  Deposit now paid on a cracking 20VT. This one is quite a bit above 'shed' territory though, but the price reflected the condition and amount of money that has been spent on it to get/keep it in tip-top order. It has been 'tweaked' also, so it was is rather rapid!  Just now to wait until I can go and collect it. Oh dear, what have I done?

Owned 3 now, two 16vt and a 20vt. Incredibly quick (for the price) and a well serviced one will be very reliable.
Added bonus is cheap until you get over 260 bhp!

I've got a Coupe. I was asking if this one has 322bhp and is the one that was sold through FCSS recently but as I've skim read the last few pages, it might have already been mentioned.
