    I heard it was only the ones with certificates or something. A guy down the shops told me because his mate had one so I guess it's true.

    Didn't a few of the late Raiders have single point injection in a modified carb body due to the incoming emission laws?

    I had this at work once, 'nice 5 mate is that the 1.7 turbo?' What, you mean is it running a b18ft? 'No they released a special 1.7 gt turbo with 200bhp stock, trust me my old man used to have one' Hahaha NO
