Chilling on the beach, seeing in the New Year 2010 in Sri Lanka, Elio told me we should do this wacky rally thing that a friend told him about. I was up for it but due to little Isla's impending arrival we had to postpone our entry until this summer. In addition to my maintenance skills and our combined European driving experience, we roped in serial speedster Harv whose extensive street racing experience would guarantee us success. We found Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration on Ebay for a bargain £255 and she has already made the epic journey from Devon to Essex. With a car that 'sounds like a rocket ship' and a gearbox that shifts 'like a knife through butter' we hope the rest will be history!
