the rear caliper design is utter rubbish, over complicated and prone to failure but not usually in the first 5 years! That's terrible.

And ridiculously prone to corrosion...
Sorry to hear about your troubles Andy, but thank goodness not everyone experiences such bad luck. I hope everything improves going forward.

aye but it also costs just as much getting to that value including all the suspension work needed to stop it spinning off into the tree line or just melting the tyres. A SC Mustang does appeal to me having said all that haha.

haha yeah i do have all that already, but i'm going to get wider alloys and tyres so that i can put the power down, just interested what 0-60 times (if any) i can get out of it on boost looking to get an edelbrock kit from summit racing, current exchange rate is £5150 (not inc shipping or duty) to buy and i'd like to DIY it as there's nothing better to do at the moment haha

i dont think the 0-60 is going to improve much if any since traction will be limited as opposed to having not enough power. 50-100mph should however be awesomely quick for getting past the pesky camper vans

Anyone actually been to evans halshaw to see if their online quotes are real?
A few on SMUK FB page have posted recently that they have sold to Evans Halshaw and got what they were quoted.

Well went ahead with the PX and picked up my new GT yesterday :)

Very pleased with it! As much as i loved Triple yellow, Twister Orange is Glorious!

Managed to get some pics of them both next to each other!
