Well i fitted my 24v almost 2 years ago now and have had no problems apart from braking 1 type 9 gearbox, but since the summer i have had the car in the garage, decided to look under the bodykit and see what nasties i would find, not much im glad to say, just 1 small hole at the very rear of the sill, so easaly repaired.
I have changed the rear axle to that of the 24v granny and fitted spax shocks all around, and cossy 4 pots on the front, just need to fix one more small hole in the floor, but its right above the fuel tank so i need to remove that to get access.
Then refit the Body kit and she is ready to go again.

P.s. doues anyone know where i can get the red stipping that fits in the bodykit?

Still works fine after 2 years too, and the plenum is a much darker blue colour its just the snow around has a strange affect on the camera
