Wondered if it got on the cheap tax as it's new reg. Isn't it not really cheap motoring if its £185 a year tax?

Tax is only cheap post 2001 if you can keep the emissions down, but you need a proper fuel system and a turbo for that...
Though 185 a year is still cheaper than the big engine tax pre y reg.

Yeah exactly what I thought. He had a saxo...so its a slight increase I think, but not too bad. He saves loads on fuel anyway!
 So just a feline removal and a wash and new owner should come get it a week saturday... Kinda looking forward to it tbh...been a lot of work and getting in the way! Wishes for more power...

Collection didnt go all that well...
30hours after he drove off... He is on his way home After a LOT of testing. Cutting. Splicing. Bodging... Seems matrix is a bit blocked...ideas welcome. And fans just not working. One totally dead. So done our own system wired into AC button. Also final mod........ And he is gone and home. Now he is looking at vinyl wrap as his company can do it for cost..... Wishes for more power...
