Nice to find an honest review that isnt just based on whatever rubbish people have assumed about them. Good review.

He was in my neck of the woods. Went through Castle Hedingham, Sible Hedingham and turned off in Wethersfield.
Jollyrodger lives in Wetherdfield but he has a gold diesel 75

Very enjoyable and James is a very pleasant guy to chat with. He did my car just over a year ago and I still like to view it and see the comments (positive and negative)

Nice one.

I guess yours was the supecharged 260 I loved that review. And yeah he's a very pleasant and knowledgeable guy ! I really like how nothing was scripted and it was all genuine thoughts, from what I saw the comments were in general positive on mine so far although you do get a few of the usual misinformed people saying the typical head gasket and reliability stuff.

I have to say of all the versions I have had the very first was my personal favourite. That was my green 2.5 Auto which was unfortunately written off after a head on back in 2003.

Unfortunately my first one was written off as well 01 pre project drive conny 2.5 V6 an Audi SUV undertook me and braked checked me which meant I met the centre reservation at 70mph. I was very surprised of well it took the impact I came out fine and the car run and drove fine weirdly enough. at least its helped to keep this one going
