Could probably get some decent cash for the wheels once it's done. Quite a smart looking thing from 20ft.

 

Reg is V560MKJ some rust creeping up underneath per last MoT

  • Vehicle structure is corroded but structural rigidity is not significantly reduced (6.1.1 © (i))

Not a bad looking WBOD if truth be told

Famous for a bloody long tunnel built by Brunel for the real GWR.

Box is just east of Bath. Seller also has this for 3 times as much.

And a £30,000 mk2 jag!

 

That traction is overpriced too from the club classifieds.

Jingle bells my turbo smells so I put it in the rear

Oh what fun it is too ride with a single turbo in the bay.

 

ohhh..

 

I suspect this creates a negative boost pressure.

I've seen rear mounted turbos before but I'm pretty sure there's a reason they run the turbo right off the manifold and not in the boot at the other end of 8ft of scaffolding pole.

Heat from the exhaust contains energy which is fundamental to the Physics?

I read an article in a car mag years ago, where someone had fitted a turbo to a 205 just in front of the back box. His impeccable* and well-informed* reasoning was that once you'd filled a hose with water, any pressure adjustments at the tap end had immediate effect at the spray end, and an exhaust system was basically like a hose but with gas. I'm guessing that he was deluged with offers from motorsport teams after it got published.

 

EDIT: Actually I'm not sure that it was a 205, because he said he couldn't fit a turbo under the bonnet. Although, given his grasp of GCSE-level physics, f**k knows what his spatial awareness was like.
