    I know, a bit crazy, but I've been thinking about it for some time.

    After 7 years I fancy something different, something a bit older I think.

    I have also had some knee operations and nearly ruptured a tendon in my foot (clutch foot) so haven't been able to drive it as much as I would like.

      It is of course your call, but I have had mine 22 years now and it's done 6 miles in the last year, I am MOT'ing it tomorrow to go to MRC next weekend, it has the wrong map (though safe) and will probably be laughed at given what people expect from it but I couldn't care less its mine owes me nothing and will always be a Ur..... And I don't care if it does 6 miles in the next year either...

      As I say your call, best of luck with the sale. If Mrs Jones was on holiday I would have it of you....... And think of my excuses later...but she's not...

        Thanks I'm quite happy with my decision so far, and have advertised it on a few sites over the weekend.

        For me I think I want to be having more fun whilst going slower, and enjoying some retro fun.

        I'm happy that I have done most things that I want to do with the car, inc a trip to Le Mans and back.

        I just hope I can find a good home for it.

          Hi guys

          Firstly I hope you find a good home for your labour of love.

          I too am now considering changing from the kkk26/GT3071r I have been driving my GIrl friend's stock ABY and it's reminded me of the good fun the stock turbo offers.

          In SA I couldnt find a tuner to custom tune the motronic so I now have a VEMs in the cupboard. I also have the Wagner short intake kit.

          I want to get rid of that spongy feel of accelerator and change to a turbo that provides a better streetable feel.

          Would you recommend the change to a GTX2876 or smaller and did you find this turbo offered far better transient response than the 3071 did?

            This car has been terrorising the streets of Australia for over two years now

              Any regrets?

              I couldn't sell mine. It would be like Han Solo selling the Falcon.
