More Power !!

Post by tonyg » Sun Jul 20, 2008 2:20 pm

I may be looking to get a little bit more grunt for the 7 - are there any good reliable K-series experts - preferably in and around Aberdeen or Central Belt in Scotland - i don't want to go as far as Dave Andrews.

Cheers

Tony.

I know you like the colour, but it makes more sense to trade up IMO

Is it a 1.6 or a 1.8 - how much power does it make and how much do you want?

Cheers,
Robin

It's a 1600 Supersport with probably around 140 bhp (standard is 135,but it's got the 4-1 exhaust).

I'm not sure i want to sell,but if you want to see it Robin you're more than welcome.

It's currently got a cracked windscreen since i hit a f**king stupid pigeon on Saturday.

i think robin mean how much power do you want, rather than how much money do you want for it :wink:

He's trying to help, bit not THAT much :lol:

Tony, I knew of a six speed box up for sale - was a while ago but can check to see if it's still available?

OK OK - picked him up wrong.

Robin it's a 1600 and the budget could be stretched to a couple of thousand at most.

Pm me and we can discuss ??
