My great aunt had died recently and I was left a sum of money, most of which we spent wiselyish. I did treat my slef though. A fellow forum member on the old XROC site was selling the car that he and some friends built for track days.

£600 bought this 2.9 XR4x4 with TurboTechnics 225BHP conversion. It had Cossy recaros ( + striped out rear ) Spax shox on puma racing springs. Mitsubishi Rally ( Enki ) Alloys and the RS kit. and Ashley exhaust.

I had it transported from Berkshire back to Carlisle. The intention was always to strip it for the engine to use in the Project Sapphire. During the stripdown extensive rust was found in the sills and rear hatch apature so good job realy!!

Eventually plans changed and the engine and virtualy everything else was sold on bar the steering wheel, oil gauge and power cut off.
