I think I saw this on the A617 the other week...can't remember if I flashed or waved, but I'd have been in a 2005 V70 D5 at the time, which doesn't help with identification!
Welcome! I'm also fairly local. My 343 is more or less off the road for the winter now, but we're talking about arranging a meet before the month is out, so all things are possible...
cheers

Hi mate,
I can vaguely remember someone flashing me. Didn't realise you were on here,
it gets so much attention it's unreal.
A local meet sounds like a good idea and I'll be up for that.
Cheers

Out of interest, with an exhaust that short, does it spit fire on the overrun?

Nope, It pops and bangs but no flames.
Now where toying with the idea of fitting a skyline turbo and top mounting as my mates just fitted a big turbo so his standard ones sat doing nothing so if that happens there maybe flames

It's not bad, couple of little bits that I'd sort if I were keeping but nothing major.
