V8 i assume?
Yeah sorry I’m not 100% sure but I think all Corvettes have always been V8 or certainly nearly all of them, it’s a C3 generation and I think when new 220 horses no idea what it is now but maybe 250ish or less but it goes ok at some point I might beef it up but it drives nice.

Absolutely stunning car
Edit: Just showed my wife, she agrees.
Bit unfair then we need pics of wife
I don't have access to that section of the forum
Colour looks a little flat as I used my phone down in the garage, but it’s Caterham’s take on Liquid Yellow. It’s a little too gold in my opinion, but I can live with that as it’s got lots of other options. It’s a factory-built 275S with the wider SV chassis and I love it.
Thanks man! Plenty around the 15k mark for a good one! A car that will not depreciate either in my opinion
This they are still moving up and can’t see them dropping back down ever again.

so nice! Is it living up to expectations so far?Yeah, looking at the market and seeing them sell for 20+ means I could probably sell mine for around that. Which is a decent gain for a car that has been very reliable bar the common issue with brake caliper seizing up!

I have not seen a GTI-R in a long time
Makes me hark back to my teenage years on Auckland’s north shore. Nice ride, hope the project goes stonkingly!
Brilliant. What’s the history of it and plans? There is one sitting in a drive near my house and it’s been there for years. Keep meaning to ask the owner what’s going on and if they release what they have!
I loved mine when I had it, in fact I found some orange indicators in a bag the other day from it
Absolutely! It’s bloody brilliant
Only 136bhp but more than enough for my needs. Means low emissions along with cheap tax and insurance so all good. Could always upgrade the cams to the 310 once the warranty runs out in 2 years, along with other mods, if I really need more power.
People who commute in these and/or use them as their “daily” are complete lunatics. It’s the perfect toy but calling it anything else is nonsense

Plan is to get it to reliable 450bhp with either quaiffe or par gearset,then gut it to shell and do a nut bolt restro.....

A cheeky spot local to me whilst out in the NSX. Love the perfomante but not a fan of matte orange personally. New decklid spoiler fitted to the NSX too:
