Return of the heap B7RLE, but it’s been fixed! Instead it now kicks properly and capable of 50mph again! Sounds beastly too, and best of all, the screaming intercooler has been fixed! Lovely!
Here it is on a rather gruelling route, tight timetable, long 50 and 60mph roads, a bit of a bus killer sometimes, watch 66982 get the run of a lifetime! Even managed a full 1st to 6th gear kickdown!
