Not a Dolly, but....

#1 Post by morebhp » Mon May 22, 2006 5:38 pm

<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... L:RTQ:UK:1" target="top">This Spitfire</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> is being sold by the bloke I bought my Dolly V8 from.<br>
<br>
When he delivered my Dolly he showed me a number of photos of his pride and joy (spitfire), and it looks lovely. He reckoned it's quicker than my V8 too, and wind in the hair.<br>
<br>
Bit of (expensive!) fun for anyone? Tax-ex as well...<br>

I really don't see what all the fuss is about. £4300 is alot of wedge. God knows what it handles like with one of them engines in. A mildly fettled Sprint engine would put out 20bhp more and weigh considerably less. He hasn't mentioned what brakes he is running which is kind of worrying. Probably GT6.<br>
<br>
V8 camper van sounds interesting though.<br>

£4,300 and he couldn't even be bothered to drag it out of the garage for some decent photos!

All true...<br>
<br>
All I can say is that he had the same attitude when he was flogging the Dolomite V8...<br>
<br>
But that worked distinctly to my advantage <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->
