Certainly was!! Its spotless and 2 months ago I got Roger to add Pedders Extreme X fully adjustable suspension and road response pack and got picador's to put a light tint on the windows.

Last week, before I sold it I also had a warranty job done on the air con pulley, so new crank pulley, tensioner and belt. Belt for air con no longer falls off under hard acceleration!

Gutted to see it go, but taxes have to be paid!

Maybe _was_ would be the word. He said he had a dealer offering a cash buy.

Nice to see misleading (ie incorrect) statements in the ad

"2. When Were The Modifications Done / They Were All Done From The Factory From New "

Cash buy it was, said goodbye to her Friday after taking my kids for some last moments of wheel spinning fun...I now have a shockingly slow Omega...

I just read the add. I supplied Ade the first couple paragraphs and equipment detail about what came as standard, what came with the carbon edition and what I've done since but the ad and the other stuff is nothing to do with me. wink

I just hope she goes to a good home and doesnt end up buried in a hedge!

dunno mate, Wortec did it as part of their Carbon Edition development. I thought it was a one off for that car, not all carbons, but Paul Spinks or Kev will correct. They would need to provide whatever detail you want to know.

Paul reckoned at the dyno day that it helps the car do 4-5+ runs on the dyno before running too hot vs. most other single IC units that struggle after 2 or so.

Me, I just enjoyed driving it! driving
