As above, a little teaser on the last page of this months Practical Performance Car Mag has a picture of the 20vt engine - called 'The other 5 pot'

Engine looks like a standard moonie plus.

Yet another magazine I can't lay my hands on. Can someone find one for me next month?

I'll get you one KJ. PM me your address and I'll stick one in the post.

P.S I don't know when it will be out though as I've literally only just got my subscription copy from this month.

And it's out: full page for me and the quanturbo and four pages for general coupeisms. Not too many howlers, apart from the limited slip diff on the 16vt...

Mentions for all the main specialists at the end of the article, though I thought they might mention Joe as (a) he provided most of the info for them and (b) I discussed him with the editor when I wrote my piece, but he didn't get a mention there, and should have.

I think I'll drop Will Holman a line.

Got mine a while ago (yearly subscription). Nice write up about the engine but too - they mentioned some specialists who I've never heard if though?????

PTS I've not heard of, but it seems they got a 20vt into a punto...
PSR seem to be Porsche and Lotus specialists.

Don't talk to me about PPC evil

I ventured out deliberately to WH smiths to buy a copy and was very disappointed that FCSS wasn't referenced in either Neil's build or the artical on Coupes, I gave my time and help with October's edition free of charge and not only do I not get a mention but the tight buggers couldn't even be bothered to send me a copy. furious

I didn't buy it coffee

PSR Automotive is run by ex-forum member Paulr20vt who was a mechanic in PowerFiat up to 2008. I bought his old Black LE in 2008 whe he left PowerFiat to set up PSR. He swapped his Le for a grey S1 Elise, which he then painted lime green!
