oops should have put this but first  :oops:

started life a 92 350i then was righten off  . then was put in a range rover about 5 yrs ago . in jan this yr the car was sold needing work to pass mot welding and brakes .

took it down to garage to be fully stripped down and converted to howire system . wish now id kept the pics of the build  :doh:

in all it took 3 months to complete.

ive kept the discovery top part so it does pull well off road and is a joy on the road .  it did come at a few k but had to be done after all im told its bonkers anyway.

still everyone has there own preferences of add ons or not  :angel:

Mr A, dont get upset mate. I, like most of the users of this forum seem to have developed selective deafness when it comes to some of Dave/Stevo-o's dafter comments. I'm sure he's a good fella at heart, he just wants us to love him. No need, I already do !!

agreed, some things written should fall on deaf ears but i do admit that it sometimes gets the better of me. now let us put all this behind us like adults before moderators get involved.

Public forums are for those who use them mate, in whatever way they wish to use them. If the owners of forums did not want people to lurk they would force registration before you could read the posts, as it is some just have locked areas for members.

Not everybody is garrulous online, my old fella has been reading hiking forums for about five years and never made a post - its up to him.

Although I agree with your assessment of the reception pirate 4x4 users would likely give stevo (They're a bit more ready to flame than us), this is getting a bit to witch hunty for my liking. Printing his user stats onto this forum? No need mate.

I think we should all follow Boss's advice and let this one lie now, hopefully those involved will interpret the way this thread went as a warning that peoples tolerence is not endless and wind their neck in a bit.

TVR engines never make the figures they are ment to...............
even TVR know that as they found out to there cost when there were taken to court over falsley claiming big figures
So your car has 260 mini ponies at most
weighs about 8 tons & the dyno graph you faked is obviously wrong due to it being the wrong shape for a V8
