Never heard of Radion. Are you sure you don't mean Nitron?

i am considering getting hi to upgrade my shocks with nitos and maybe do a little power enhancment

just a little scared about tampering with such a lovely car but wouldn't mine the extra power.

Had my Tasmin Series 1 resprayed (properly) by a guy who specialises in GRP: cost me £800 in 1999. That was wth me stripping the car and putting it back together.
