The one under the bonnet is in a strange position and looks too new. As far as I know the car is not for sale so this information is probably irrelevant but I just wanted to make sure the status is known as I was saying I thought it was an X88. It may well be, but I can't categorically state that. Trainspotting session over, normal programming can resume.
Are we 100% sure its not the blue one that was crashed? If it is X88 from factory then PET will show that when you type in the VIN. If it was claimed teh conversion was done later then thats much harder to prove without documentation I guess....

The VIN only tells you model, year and body type. It is a 94 Turbo. X88 is an option code as we saw on the bonnet sticker.

I did a PPI on the damaged one in 2001. It had a grey interior. In a closer look the bonnet paint here is unlikely original underneath. Maybe it's had an accident as well?

Sam. I emailed you re Sunday. It went to your work email. Drop me a line....
Thanks Macca, looks good.

I can also make tomorrow now that a meeting has moved... What is the plan to welcome Doug back into the 09 region with the spyder? Can you please email me the details of the meet up.

Also just posted an RSG favourite run up on the site.

Hi Sam. Will email you shortly. Thanks for posting that run on the RSG site. Ill have a closer look at that.

John. The VIN will tell you all option codes in an authorised PET system with internet link. Dean can do this, I could too till the move to Windows 8 64 bit where my PET no longer works. You are right it was the blue and grey ex Tim manning car that was in the accident. so not this one. If this one had seen extensive paint it was some time ago I think as the paint on the car did not look recent...

Next stop Sanson for a run with Garry D in his sweet GT3RS. We did that nice run you will know near Fielding. It was great to here the GT3 excellerate in front of me and try to play catch/keep up. Had lunch together at Taihape and he wisely repeated the run on the way home.

Next, met up with Steve at Europacific at Pirongia to gander at his teams good work on Lola. All the hard stuff is done and panels have been prepped for painting in the paint shop. She's spread out over 2 parts of the shop so not worthy of photos other than her nose job
