Well having rented the car out for this season after driving it myself in 2001 it is time to sell.

Anyone fancy themselves as a racing driver?

As driven by Robin Strong this year (with podium finishes)

To be fair it is a very competitive car and looks great in its new paint job (if a little... well... girly ). Whoever buys it won't regret the decision and certainly won't be languishing at the back of the field.

Rare shot of it in it's original colours and with no damage

One of the best sounding Taz's on the grid though! Is Robin not racing it next season then?
Hows the Kamala build going?

it is limited to 280i's and you can have ragtop or fixed head.

there are 2 ragtops running one with a hardtop and my much cooler version without a roof.


coming out to play ?

you need to do an ards test to get the national b racce licence.

Backwards definately, but probably only just in time to stick it in a ditch :-)

I bow down to your ability to quaff 'Wife beater' but can I substitute racegirl in my place

But what has your race record been like then chap, has the black and yellow cross come off the back yet? Or have you done enough Marshalling

Black and Yellow is a distant memory, however crossing the line is a forumla ford at silverstone with only 3 inflated tyres is a fairly recent one...... Mega oversteer through copse, excellent fun :-)

Nope, I now have my National A licence to thrill...... or was that license to crash dramatically into any hard object located on or around the circuit.. i can never remember which.

What I can remember though is a very chundering racegirl at Le-Mans last year whilst the rest of us were still on our 8:30 AM till Midnight warmup session on the Thursday :-)........... Although I seem to remember that Spanner Man Dom was first to blow chunks...... But then there was also that nasty business on the last night aswell..... less said about that the better me thinks.. :-)
