Finally I collected my 2011 S Club raffle prize. A rolling road check by Austec in Crawley. Since we planned a short break to our friends in Toddington , I contacted Paul at Austec if the prize was still valid. He confirmed and since Crawley is in between Dover and Toddington the plan was fixed to make a stop at Austec.

The good news is that the car has 155 Hp and 195 torque which is quite good according Tom at Austec. The bad news is that this figure can't be improved without major work to the engine. Cams and other stuff. He said everything was in perfect order, fuel mixture, timing etc. I hoped he could improve it with some minor tweaking on the other hand I am now sure the car is running as it should.

Honestly speaking, have made a test drive in this car today at Neil Garner. Not sure about the color though :-)
