Location: Southy Coast		Hi All,

Ive not as yet got a metro but i do run a mgf 1.8vvc which is great.
After meeting itsonlyme Tony a few weeks ago and seeing his work on a 1.8 metro I thought it was a crazy idea. On his recommendation ive found your crazy website.

I now feel like I need a little crazy in my life.

So im keeping an eye out for a good source car and then getting a 1.8 mpi engine in it for some cheap thrills.

Funding is going to be from selling some bits and bobs from other cars ive collected over time and justifying any extra to mrs bmth as its got 4 seats and we can take the kids out as a family so looking to do just a subtle engine change.

Location: Southy Coast		lol, v funny Tony, My vvc F is faster than me so Id be pretty much out my depth with a 160 in a metro... but just in case you got a link to the ad just in case i do grow a pair and think about it.

Before I get too far into buying stuff I need to finish building my garage.

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Martin
