Yeh I use to work there on and off for 4-5 years. I was the old cycles and parts supervisor before moving over to the Ripspeed side before I left. Yeh I know Will and still chat mini's when ever I see him. I still sepak with Robin and young Josh when ever I pop in.
Busa wise fair play sounds cool, my mate is just startting to sell FWD drive Yammy R1 mini kits which are well different to the usual common rear engined jobbies.
I will have to quiz Will next time I see him to ask the in and outs of his plans

Lunchtime meet in Leamington
Hi,
I work in Warwick and sometimes drive into Leamington (Mac D's). my94 Metalic Blue Wagon import plus a few extras (alloys etc yawn). Plus LPG
Do any of you meet up at lunchtime in the week? Would any of you be interested in doing so ?
I have been to API engines for service/clutch/brakes/exhaust etc..LOL they are a good bunch and under the bonnet looked better once they'd finished.
I was a paranoid wreck when I first had the car (what's that noise - How much to fix will it pass MOT ?!)
Dave and the guys at API did their work and all was fine.
I do recommend them !!!

Mine is on an R mate. It's a baby Sport, DBM, lowered, nice sounding exhaust (that's where all my money has been blown so far!!)
Soon to be fitted with some 18" Anthracite PFF7 replicas too once I got the tyres on.
Quick pic..

james did you follow a dark green wagon with black mudflaps the other day? My dad said he'd seen a nice dark blue sport following with a youngish lad driving, thought it may have been you? If not keep an eye out for him in his wagon(estate! ), he gets all excited when people wave, sad aint it?!

Going down Wharf Street and round that way? Was a nice wagon!

2 spotted this morning, both with the same ending to their plates - CUY
One was a black blobeye, with morettes, heading in from the M40. The other a blue blobeye, heading out of town towards the viaduct.

I seem to be making a habit of being spotted - maybe I am not driving quick enough
