Does anybody that uses XPF know if he's posted about it on there? In fairness the guy says he doesn't post on here a lot. Might have forgotton about us

Really looking forward to seeing and hearing this car. Am really gutted that nothing came along like this when i still owned the Hot Wheels MG. Searched high and low to get some ex-BTCC bits.

I was saying that you are unlikly to hear from Steve as he hasn't been on for a while.

I was also suggesting that progress on the car is likely to have been slowed as RSM been closed by the owner reopened as a different company and has moved twice since the first post in this thread.

The company change and 2 moves are fact, Steves last visit was a fact at time of posting, everything else is are resonable assumptions based on these facts.

I would rather just drop a VAG lump into mine, personally. Much better bang for your buck IMO.
