Q290 VMF - Anyone know this car?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi, I've just rejoined the club after a few years away as I've recently bought a new car. Anyone know it?

 

It started life as an early (1990 chassis) wide body cross flow in red. It was substantially rebuilt by someone in the 2000s and converted to its current Puma 1.7 Sigma engine.

 

It was then repainted at some stage by the previous owner.

 

It's a bit poorly at the moment. The ECU config / map has been messed up and I was told before I bought it that it's down on compression on 3&4 so that needs investigating next. It's clearly been left outside and got wet but although the carpets have suffered, the chassis etc seems to have survived OK. 

 

First step is getting it running and then I'll make it look a bit more loved. I've already got a list of parts needed in the wanted section. I'd really like some different wheels!

I like the two shades of blue.  It's smart!
