Welcome to the list!!!  Sounds like you have nice access to some neat cars
(although I was never impressed with the G60, no offense).  Chris is a good
contact to have also.

Mk1!?  Good base to start with, one of the strongest for high hp but would
still suggest some bracing but depends on the hp you plan on going for.
With the ABA G60 you could get up near the 200 mark with a stage 3 or 4
upgrade.

Prolific?  Are you trying to start something!!  LOL!

Dave
