Ha ha good guess! Yes its me, still have the Maestro in the garage, been off the road nearly 2 years now frown Just not had the time as i now have two children, got an ST220 as my nice car and a Transit for work, moved over to the dark side!

Mechanically its perfect, doors a bit scabby now but i have replacements ready to paint that are rust free, plus i'm changing colour..

The only person i have heard from recently is Crezzer, i have nothing to do with the forums these days.

The ST does a 14.9 so its almost as fast as the Maestro was before i changed to a cossie turbo!
