A long time ago i had a GSI 24v Carlton about 1995/6 and a LC engine came up for sale at Collins performace enginering so i bought it and then took it to Thetford to a guy that had a workshop full of LC parts.
He was going to build me a LC rep with genuine parts..
But thing happened and the engine ended up going to BTB ...
Just wondering if that is the Engine that is now in the white LC???

Still a fantastic car and a TRUE LEGEND!!!!!!!! Keep your M5's and AMG mercs....
