Nah, it's the shape below. I'm sure it's a 308D, could be wrong though as I've not been near it for a good year or so....

Nah, Tango Orange. It was the most unreliable thing in the world which is why I laid it up, pointless having it if you never knew if it would get you to where you needed to go.

To be honest, I haven't got a clue. I can remember sh*t all about it's details, apart from it being a steaming pile of crap.

lol this beast is still going strong. Il update you on what ive done since ive had it: New treads all round T-cut and a bit of treatment to the banged up spots (will get to the rear panel eventually) New exhaust system but kept the powerflow back box New rear beam New clutch New radiator Had a bit of trouble with the oil pump and to no fault but my own i let it run too much and damaged the big ends so i had the engine replaced with a 56k vtr engine (runs sound now) Got some new team dynamics on the way with kumhos on and il probs replace the brake disks and pads. Also theres a new passenger door ive to put on as the current one has dropped and wont open without lifting it. So i guess its going ok; I still love the thing  PO-TA-TOES PO-TA-TOES
