Saw this and thought of you, could have been worse OP. Passion Ford North London last weekend, the first night out of a rwd mk3.. He wiped out 3 other nice cars too and I'm guessing everyone tried to kill him.

Great thread. Good to see another LS powered car up here. I don't like taking my LS powered Minor out in the wet as things can go wrong pretty quickly.

Nice car, was gutted to see it smashed up guess it's a real handful, was there an issue that caused it to snap or was it just over enthusiastic?

Either way it looks great now, real sleeper... Until it's started I'm guessing :-)
