SX failed at the weekend with a lower ball joint goosed.

New one fitted and some new bushes whilst i was at it.

Retested today with flying colours

That run out I had with Adam in the 400SX a few years ago at BBWF remains the most memorable car experience I've ever had. wobble
The combination of noise, acceleration and supercharger scream was just mind blowing. cloud9

Might try & sell the griff again & wait for one of you chaps to sell me one. scratchchin

Have you had a sniff around the SX from the other thread?

I still consider myself a bit of a wedge newbie compared to some of you guys, but the SX is mental, completely off its rocker.

Can only imagine how Adams goes.

Only had a quick chat with the other chap. Won't be in a position to sell untill June so I might miss out again. Griff needs a couple of jobs doing. Just have to see how it goes.

Fingers crossed, you might get in there this time.

When i had mine up for sale i was going to be starting my own outfit up here.

It was based on the strength of the aircraft carrier contract being awarded to some firms on the Tyne, but the contract was mainly awarded elsewhere.

I have decided to take time out from setting up on my own so i get to keep the SX for now.

Took my SX to Rockingham at the weekend. It's done 81K but still a blast. Gave a few people a bit of a surprise with it's turn of speed and as I've had it from new- makes me feel 20 years younger!
