Congrats, Mark and thatk you for your kind words.

One cannot fail to like a car that's such a bizarre mix of ideas and which is so effective - I like the incongruity of the S-Type dash trim!

Have fun & keep in touch.

Cheers Nick I got the new belt on the day I sold the car

I cant keep away from the board. All this S/C activity is exciting me, plus I like the people.

Had the EVO dyno'd at 310 bhp on Friday. On the 5th Bob Rawle (mapping god) is tinkering with it, after I bolt on a downpipe, fuel pump and K&N panel. Should be seeing 370 bhp and mucho torques!

Shall keep posting my eexperiences

Ive got MR suspension on the way. The stock FQ stuff is hard beyoned belief. My dyno graph actually has "sawtooth" profile to it as it wouldnt stay still on the rollers!

Apart from that its pretty good fun! Im not sure its near the S on tight stuff like 90 degree roundabouts. Not tried the diff in "Snow" mode yet though

Other thing of note is people GET OUT YOUR WAY if they get a hint of you in the rear view mirror, which is nice It looks a bit evil.
