No, but I think you should buy it and take it to our next sprint event so I can check it out!

This car has been on and off the market for a loooooooong time. The price is starting to head towards the reasonable end of the scale.

Thanks Guys,
In the under the bonnet shot, where's the pump? or was that shot taken at it's very first service,before being force-fed, it looks pristine.
Blowers aren't exactly small components and a little difficult to hide.
Still remember an old mate of mine trying desparately to avoid a yellow canary by telling the walloper "it's not a supercharger SIR",  "it's a new A/C compressor" ..... sure sonny, tell that to the magistrate! Many laughs had by all for years and years .... he got the defect notice and the speeding fine.

I'm guessing but with a claimed 300plus ponies (240kW ATW) is it likely to be only supercharged?
I'm not sure how the extra half litre or so capacity is achieved, boring or stroking?

Sorry Bix, much as I'd love to oblige for my own curiosity alone, I think this car could be more trouble than it's worth.

Cheers,
Andy

I believe it's one of these units http://www.autodeltashop.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_59&products_id=231 with the blower hidden away under all that engine. I wonder if he had to fund the Autodelta dude's flights over to Australia for the installation...
