not as in pulling it down a dark alley and having my way with it.....

But was racing a AX GT and had to work hard to keep up, especially on the corners, as his was lowered and my suspension is more wobbly than patrick's temper.....

What spec are they?

And since then when i stop the revs idle at 1500rpm-2000rpm, that ain't right Heard it mentioned loads, so what is it?

Breather hoses are blocked, idle air control valve probably sticking, usually one or both of those.

My mate used to have an AX GT, it's like driving a tin can, they are quite rapid for a 1.4!

AX GT's are fast as you like, I raced on in my GT the other day when I took it for a quick blat, could'nt get past him until I hit 2nd.

He was quite fast, didn't get away tho, just had this gap that i couldn't close.

Didn't even attempt to overtake....I'd say we were pretty even, until the corners

Yes, that is normally the best plan of action for strange noises.

Cars are there to be abused, i prefer to break things and get new stuff, as long as only standard bits break...

I timed a 0-60 in my car lastnight, was with a fairly horrendous start and shifting to third to hit 60, it was 8.47.

I used the stop watch on my 3310

About as accurate as a egg timer, but still a rough guide.
