Agreed with Brad, its a very nice RST, and I love them to bits, would just rather have my car 
Looks a very tidy example though, and you know it will be running well after NMS have had thir hands on it

Much like mine, the bumper creates a big air restriction, and, depending on what's going on behind the intercooler (he may have a much thicker cored rad installed, or the intercooler may be mounted right up to it - it does appear to be set quite a way back) room may be so limited that he can no longer fit a pull fan, and has had to opt for a small pair of push fans instead.
When considering the obstruction caused by the bumper, the extra surface area of the fans may well be negligable at speed, and push fans may well be preferable to a conventional layout for cooling at low speed or whilst stationary, due to their ability to concentrate ambient air at a relatively high pressure on the front of the cooler whilst the vehicle is stationary.
I may be wrong though as this is only speculation on my part

It would appear that the leader (one with a penchant for Mercury grey RS turbos) of a gang of Basque seperatists has kidnapped vibrio and extracted his CS password from him (presumably via some means of horrendous torture technique) purely in order to post his own views on CS without being traced by the authorities.

'Tis nice Jimbo, does look V. clean, shame about homosexual white gauges, pointless leather (Mike would love it - he could drive fast and lick the seats) and nasty steering wheel though.
Should have bought a black one though
