    Here's my little runner.
    No where near as fancy as the rest of the stuff in the thread, but when was the last time anybody saw one with that body style.

    How does it handle in the bad weather?
    Not willing to find out just yet. I nearly died on the motorbike earlier in the week, and I saw the neighbour in his 1-series plough the road sideways before giving up. RWD=no go.

    Besides with around 3.5" of ground clearance in 2ft snow the road would be nice and clear after I've ploughed it, but I'd need a new motor.

    Sweet.

    Was behind you on the M4 weekend before last. You opened her up just at the start of the motorway off the N4 only to get cut up by a muppet.

    You get the transmission niggles sorted?

    I walked by that the other day (in that same spot) and thought that it was lovely looking.

    Mostly, the cutting out on hills was a chronic shortage of Transmission Fluid. It still does a rough slam into some gears (when dropping down) which is likely caused by worn clutch packs in the Auto box (it has like 170k miles on it!).

    Im going to change a few bits like the MAF and see can I indirectly improve it.
