He paid £4500 for it , just over 3 years ago , it was a wreck , just imported from Japan , should think he has easily spent that again engine rebuilds etc , and is about to have it repainted , he has 3 sets of wheels all tyred up and has just fitted a new roll cage , so over £10k i should imagine and it still looks like a 25 year old car , i really wanna get him something decent but he wont have it , he 'says he's happy with what he 's got , and can afford , hard to put an old head on young shoulders


regards loz

Does he enter drifting championships/competitions with it Loz?

I Think ken block had a go at the RAC rally and crashed out, but a great drifter.... He was on top gear a few years ago drifting around a small airport.

Scared James may if I recall

Kenny from the Block entered a few rounds of the WRC this year, he didn't finish many of the events.

he has bought a lovely ( i mean effing horrid) Jaguar XJR supercharged with the horrid magnolia leather with the cheap crappy veneer light wood trim, i hate the XJ, one of the cars i hate the most in the world.

Have to disagree with you there Adam i have owned a couple of XJ6's the last of the proper ones with the XK engine in.
It was a Arthur Daley phase i was going through but a great driving car all the same.
