BMW badging ....skoda style ...........Start at craze at my age ???? .............50 .................... ( 2001 1.8t 4x4 elegance : mtm 190 map, custom turbo, Audi TT N75, better dump valve and pipework, sleeper....as good as scoobies I've had and more discreet / economic to run...less chavy !! )

 

All hail Skoda :)

I'm 53 and bought a Focus ST 250bhp in Tangerine Scream in August.

 

Because I can afford to (something I couldn't do when I was 25)!!

 

The phrase "too old" doesn't compute - go for it :)

    How about the phrase  "mid-life crisis"? :tongueout:

    That doesn't compute either :)

     

    Although buying a sporty car is apparently number one on the list of "signs" that you're suffering from that "ailment" so I can see where you're coming from!

    Smokey, I have the same car as you bought recently for a similar sleeper style project. I can't link to your build thread for some reason. Do you have any more details of your map and turbo please? Did you do anything else to engine etc for this? Thanks for any info.
