Looks fantastic, I would look into fitting an RS air box as the DSCI is renown for sucking up water and hydrolocking the engine. Also has the benefit of having a few more ponies and a nicer noise.
I did wonder about hydrolocking when I was installing it. Noise is something I'm not lacking at the moment!maxypriest said:

Absolutely Brilliant. I too built a sleeper - out of an old merc and the concept is as good as it sounds; to you out there who are wondering – go for it if you can.

Lurked around for ages without signing up but had to just to say I absolutely love this, must be a right giggle and leave plenty of people confused.
Love it ??
Thank you!Love it ??
My favourite people to confuse are pedestrians. They hear something, turn around, look at the car, then look everywhere else, then look back at the car and pull the most amazing faces. It gets me every time!

After the best part of six months driving it I still have not had anyone one try it on, but have nipped past some pretty fancy cars and then disappeared off.
Have you seen the vid where the bloke who built the Volvo 245 sleeper goes looking for an M5?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymi0xkErqWI&t=...

It was great to meet everyone this morning, and thanks for the positive reaction to the car too.
It was good to meet you. Thanks for spending the time with those of us poking around your car (especially my 6 year old with his hands in the engine bay). We were there for three hours and yours seemed to have the biggest crowd. Gassing Station | Readers' Cars | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
