Clarkson SD1

Anyone remember the Clarkson SD1? Think British Racing Green, gold wheels, Cossie whale tail and 5.2 litres of nuttiness. This might help you remember:

Well the car got stripped of it's engine and has been sat out the back of RPi Engineering for quite some time. The guy that's uploaded that video has acquired the car and is gonna start restoring it to it's original glory, with the addition of some uprated suspension and brakes - something that Jeremy Clarkson never did due to spending all his money on the engine and drivetrain!

Personally I'm very excited about this and can't wait to see the finished car! I even dug out the Clarkson vid last night to watch in action.

Thought some people might appreciate knowing :)

Crikey. The basic Vitesse hasn't enough brakes let alone a 5.2 litre thingie. I've got Jag front ones on mine. And intending fitting rear discs once I can get round to it.

Don't know who you could mean.
