I’ve had this a good while now but don’t think I’ve posted it up before . It’s an 89 2wd Cossie with 327bhp . As soon as I got it we fitted a GroupA head gasket , water pump, new belts , green injectors , actuator , big intercooler and custom chip then straight up to the Dyno to make sure everything was running sweet.

It came on horrible multi spoke 17s so first thing I did was get it straight on original 15” lattice wheels tho now have 4 Michelin’s to go on . I love this thing and it gets driven loads . It’s proper old school fun big turbo lag then boooost. 😂😂

Used to surprise me how handy run these were, mostly due to the massive lag meaning you were hardly ever on the turbo. Looks great on the standard wheels 👍🏻

Lovely job, nice colour in them too. People forget how much of a hero car the cossies were in their day, just about attainable for the mortal man.

couldn’t serve a 3 course meal in a 2 hour window and told to leave as they need the table back. Idiots. We were not dithering with the menu to long either. Service is as important as the food to me. Or more so.
