He can check to see if any of the mounts give lateral adjustment for extra grip

Its a toy car with a 1.6! I'm not concerned with grip as much as being overtaken by a scooter

Last one that popped up was in an accident whilst on a trailer... Do see them often. Can check the loom. If it works its most likely not a genuine one. Maybe a fake.

Can't be an F16 - that's a big block box.

The C afterwards might be CR, as opposed to WR, close ratio and wide ratio. Wide being better for fuel consumption.
