Thanks CAVEMAN. Nice to know the car is appreciated even though it's not a real WR1. I'm assuming you have the real thing?

ah bollocks.....only spot I post up and its a fake!!
to be fair though I was with the family and looking up close to a car in a UK carpark people will put me down as a nut case, or a drug habit enduced car thief.
looked pretty convincing to me... although maybe now you were giving it the beans afterall

I live on the Leicstershire/ Warwickshire border and work in Leicester so will be mostly in your neck of the woods.

Looks like there might be a few around then? i reckon we're pretty well populated in and around Leicestershire.
Enough for an evening meet/drink somewhere? Hey, any excuse to get out, look at sorted motors and talk nerdy shite?

The thought of about 10 wr1s parked at one house for a BBQ like something out of fast and furious! Lol!

So what is the collective noun for a group of WR1's?
Could it be a clutch?

more than enough space at mine for 10 or more...
its my UK HQ and home when I come over, so all more than welcome to park up in the car park and crack on the BBQ outside the staff canteen/entertainment area
we have had live bands, a couple of inflateable football pitches, as well as the driving simulator, 6m wide Wii Sports and bar cranked up in the past just for a giggle.

Reckon it's all over to Caveman's for a Barbie then! Let us know when you get back and are ready - the rest of us can bring our 1's (and nearly 1's!!!) burgers and Beer!
That'll be some photo if we can get a shite load of wr1's together!

Over to you Caveman........ Just don't say Finland!
By the way, you say you're coming back over to get some upgrade work done, anything interesting? Who's doing the work for you?

I need to drive it back to the UK to get it MOT'd, as it isn't yet officially imported into Finland, so still need to be taxed & tested as usual...just driving on the international insurance at the minute.
Can't reveal too much about location just yet...will work out my dates and once I know when I am coming over then I will let you guys know.
Probably just gonna slap a new turbo, injectors etc on it - already have exhaust, Simtek with ALS and LC... I want to build a EJ22 CDB motor myself, so this way I can drop it straight in and use all the same bits.
Nothing silly...just a bit more on what I have already.

You see it starts easy enough.. will just do this here n there and get a little more power... before you know it you will have a 400-500bhp monster.

Does that mean you are over for the Bruntingthorpe day in August? Be great to get a meet near to that date, arrangement by PM of course.

We bring a load of AV gear to support it, so yep hoping to be there again this year.
Reckon I might just have to be over at the end of June or start of July.
Have a little one due at the end of May and need to sort MOT/tax before end of July. So those dates seem good to go unless my ass gets put on a plane somewhere.
