It was indeed outside Stainless Creations, but it was just there for the day to get the exhaust made up and fitted. It'll be going back once the engine is running to have the intercooler pipework done too

This isn't the playstation version. It was a spare full BTCC shell that was used as a mock up to sit outside the VIP tent.
RSM did quite a bit of work to it over the winter and it now has most of the fuel system, some electrics and a T-series engine 70% fitted. With a bit more work it should be running by the time I get back onshore again - or be very close to it. Certain aspects like the brakes are going to be a bit of a nightmare but it's getting there :clap:

Ahhh i wondered where that got to. Used to belong to Friersgate MG-Rover dealership in Tamworth was in their showroom until it closed down in late 2007. Then got moved the their other dealership in Lichfield. That then became Ford and they sold the ZS off. Then it appeared on Ebay again in Lichfield then RSM bought it.

Yeah that's the one. Thanks for that info, I didn't know the exact details of what had happened with it
