880kg with just under £10 worth of petrol in! Well chuffed with that, was expecting it to be a little over 900kg.

Was RR'd at 155bhp which gives a power to weight ratio of 178 bhp/ton which isnt too bad at all.

Going back on the RR as there was some fueling problems which have now been sorted! should make 160+bhp fingers crossed!

Do you have photos of your relocated battery mate? I want to do this but wanted to see how people mount them in the back.
Thanks
