- Previous owner spec’d a fully forged 2. 3-litre 'stroker' engine in late 2012/ 13 with photos of engine build and invoices etc.
- Initially envisaged as a ‘project build’ so never used in anger by the builder or the then-owner
- Specialists 'Evotune' of Durham developed the engine to 580bhp

- The car's shell is in superb condition, rust-free, always air-chamber stored; new fuel pump fitted last week
