yes I had planned to go but now I've been told i've got to work. My Clubman with stage three 1293 engine is almost done, would have looked forward to a bit of Polo thrashing!!!

Just bought this, previously had a white Mk3 on black 15s with Mk3 bumpers, wrote that off.

My best time was about 18.3 HAHA.

Not bad considering my first time @ a dragstrip

The car has about 105K on the clock & poorly serviced!

What im saying is, its as i bought it for 50 quid (no money spent mecahnically engine wise on it)
