Excelent machine which makes you feel you go fast!
Mine has a 160bhp K-engine in with 5 speed (ford) gearbox, great pocketrocket.
Room enough and im 1.84mtr.
Took it to every corner in the UK, done the Alps, anual weekend on the NurnburgRing and trackdays.
There is Always something you like to improve on it so its a great hobby!

I dont see being in a small car in modern traffic as dangerous but there is one tip to make sure people dont run you over: drive faster then anybody else!
Thanks for the write up, I love the fact that you have kept it all this time, certainly makes the car very special, well done.
