dunno if this has been posted yet but the car is no more. whilst been transported between events it caught on fire due to an electrical fault!! the car wasnt insured either so that at least 100g down the drain doh! was a nice car aswell.

:o :o :o Not the Mint Blue and Silver one on 22's!!!! Please say it was the not so nice MK3 (Green one) on 20's!

Thats terrible! I really really liked that car! :(

The owners must be gutted! A lot of work went into that.

i heard they insured it for 300,000 but are only gettin 70,000.
as they never drove it it didnt need road insurance.
Mike.
14-07-04, 10:02 PM
they didn't drive it once!!!!!!!
you would think that they would have at least tested it or driven it
its a car its ment to be used!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its up for the best 6 modified cars in the country as well! Better get re-building quick as they could win ?20,000! WOuld only cover some of the cost though.... :lol:

No wonder it never went over 20mph, look how low it is. It's a shame whats happened, they've obviously put a lot of time and effort into it.
