Does it cover rolling road use?

Actually, that's a serious question, 'cos I'm sure a manufacturer would try to wriggle out of an engine blown job if it happened on the rolling road.

Buy a PSA car - spend French taypayers' money! :p

Not specifically, but it probably doesn't say you're not covered for rallying, heh.

Not saying the engines dont break like....just that they try!!

And to be fair you get some nic kit there. A lot of the lads that had VTs's

5-6 years ago now have some tasty cars. There were sever al evo's/scoobies etc and a skyline and a TVR cerbera at the last one i went to.

I really tried to get it sorted, but couldn't swing it. Three other prior commitments, that at the end of the day might as well have let me come to the rolling road, but didn't. Tsk, tsk.

When's the next one up for?

People clearly too timid to see Kermit on the rolling road, then! :)

Not really 'cos I'm a member of the FSOC anyway, heh.

Clearly, with the only short wheelbase front wheel drive one, too! :)

According to that dyno, 72bhp at the wheels, I think. Might have been at the flywheel.

Out of interest, what *do* you have to have/be to qualify for membership of the Ford Sierra Owners' Club? :-)

72 bhp, estimated, at the flywheel.

I didn't see the "at the wheels" figure. I'll have to ask!

Nice.

Chuff! 52 at the wheel!

Okay now I am happy.

Did Squeals have an AWD one? He the chap and the operator said, "bit lossy in the transmission, eh?"
