Wow, a 400bhp cosworth engine in a road legal go kart, those things will go like hell

Thats very reasonable, is your technician a Bentley specialist?

They are notoriously difficult cars to work on, very limited access to the engine. Typically you're looking at an engine out job by a specialist just to replace cooling and oil feed pipes to the turbos, but we got round it by making some special tools which enabled to us to remove them and fit new ones. A few months after we fitted the pipes it had to go to the specialist and have the engine removed anyway to have the exhaust studs and nuts replaced, amongst other things so it was a waste of time You cannot run a super car on a shoe string.

My uncles Lotus has needed a £20k overhaul/refresh in the past two years to have it put right because it spent most of it's time in storage for several years which caused parts to deteriorate. And it's only done 30,000 miles from new. It can be more cost effective to keep them running sometimes.

Just been reading that thread and it's what prompted me to post mine. Our economy is collapsing and the financial experts are forecasting that we are heading back into recession

Sign of the times, people can no longer afford the extravagance of running super cars. These guys used to look after my uncles Esprit, they weren't cheap but they were very good and had some of the most experienced Lotus technicians in the country working for them. Last time I visited their premises about 18 months back their shop was almost full of cars. http://www.thisisderbyshire.co.uk/End-road-luxury-car-dealer-nearly-40-years/story-14180348-detail/story.html

The Overheads Of Doing A 'job' Stupidly High?
Lander replied to CrashedOutAndBurned's topic in House prices and the economy
I'm a self employed vehicle detailer and I dare say that most of those in 'proper' jobs would not be up to it. -
The Overheads Of Doing A 'job' Stupidly High?
Lander replied to CrashedOutAndBurned's topic in House prices and the economy
A lie in is one of the biggest perks of being self employed IMO. I start around 9.30am and finish around 5pm, although sometimes till 7pm -

Red Square Closed - Military On The Streets In Moscow
Lander replied to R K's topic in House prices and the economy
I've almost fallen victim to this. It's rampant in Russia. Lots of pretty girls looking for a green card or to scam you out of your money. They are ruthless.
