Thumbs up Buying Guide in this month's PPC magazine

Practical Performance Car is currently one of my absolute favourite motoring magazines - mostly about shoe-horning outrageous engines into small classic cars.

Unsurprisingly, these guys 'get' the MG ZT260!

A very good buying guide in this month's magazine...

It's in next week's edition if I have my calendar up the right way. Saw the current edition and they said in would be in the next one which is due next Thursday. I think.

Very good article - and a beautiful example photographed. Who's is it?

BTW, Well worth buying a copy - Toby Una's finished his BMW 3-series 3.5 litre turbo conversion!

Not to sure about the Future, now is the time to buy I doubt if there will be as many available next winter as there are now and prices are always depressed this time of year.

All of them have to be registered by the end of this year or they will fall foul of emissions regulations. The irony of this is that the engine actually meets Euro IV standards, but according to Rincewind they hadn't got around to registering it as such when they went pop.

A man called Ray Morley, all round good egg. Was happy to drive over and allow the mag to take pictures etc. It arrived clean but they gave it a good going over with the cloth.
