Paul_r Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Good morning everyone! Around 4 weeks ago I became the proud owner of a 2001 Megablade and I thought it was time that I should introduce myself on this great forum! As you can see from the photos (which hopefully I have linked in correctly) it's in great condition for its age! I am informed by the previous owner that this was a factory built car. Specification wise, this it still has its original 1994 893cc fireblade engine which was rebuilt by AB performance in 2011. It has jetted carbs and an AB Performance air box. The bodywork has been sectioned to ease removal and it is also fitted with a Quaife ATB. If anyone else is located around the Cheshire area keep an eye out for me and I'll sure to give you a wave! Looking forward to many years of great drives, and lots of tinkering / modding. Regards. Paul. Quote
Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Looks like a great car, enjoy! Hope to see you on a run out or event this year Quote
petzzii Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Welcome Paul, nice car..what seats are in there? Quote
XTR2Turbo Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 nice car. They look like the factory covered race seats Quote
Paul_r Posted March 26, 2016 Author Posted March 26, 2016 Thanks for all the comments. Petzzii, I believe the seats are the standard Westfield grp sports seats with the vinyl trim! Done a few long journeys in them and they're actually really comfortable. 1 Quote
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 your car looks really good. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Nice looking car, welcome. The factory race seat was always a good, strong seat. A little heavier than some of the very lightweight shell type, but tougher for it. They are a bit narrow for the, ahem, larger driver though Quote
