well guys car was delivered yesterday evening, got it insured today after a bit of hassle. changed the coolant as previous owner had only put water in    :rolleyes:
bled up the system and took it up the road, turned on to the dual carriageway and OOOOOMMMMMMFFFFGGGGGODDD  :shocked:  :shocked:  :shocked:  :shocked:  :shocked:  :shocked:
the acceleration is completely bonkers more like a motorcycle acceleration, really could not believe how mad it is, made me giggle like a kid.
plans are sort the body, sort the minor defects and eventually get an lsd fitted  :smiley:
