I have one of the M12's in at the moment, its having a full competition spec exhaust which will be ceramic coated, custom made manifolds and a big twin turbo conversion, bigger intercooler and intakes and mapping (they have either MBE or OMEX710 as standard) should be seeing 500+ bhp rather easily

great cars, after having one for a weekend I would definitely buy one if i was in the market for a fast, reliable cheap to run and service car.

Interesting....................whats the bill going to be around for 500bhp Dave?

Any clue regarding service & parts, I doubt theres much of a dealership network, could take it to Ford!

oil filter and plugs are from a ford (cant remember which model) but are cheap, oil is mobil1 which isnt so cheap, engines are easy to work on, scarily fast but very very stable, much tamer than I thought it would be.

Sounds like one of my better ideas then.

Been watching some old Top gear vids on Youtube & Gezzer preferred the early 2.5 over the 3L, said its more balanced....possibly more fun, which is good because 3L's go for more serious cash.
