Yeah, the Phoenix is a nice car. Any particular example you have in mind? The one on PH is a bit above my budget (more than 9K!)

Ooh, another nice (?) Fury on Pistonheads: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2825100.htm. Don't know about the engine, though. Variable Valve Control sounds cool, 160 HP sounds plenty, but it's a Rover engine, so it'll blow up?
Cheers,
Mattijs

Jees that's a lousy picture isn't it?
The Rovers had a reputation for blowing head gaskets & as the head bolts go righ through & hold the sump on, changing the gasket isn't as easy as it might be. I know next to nothing about the K series, but allegedly the gasket issue has been solved by using a higher spec gasket, so you'd have to do a little reasearch on the net - should be easy, lots of MGFs & Caterhams still around - & find out exactly what the right bits are & then you can look at the Fury armed with the right info.

Matt,
There is a Tiger S6 for sale on Tiger Owners Club, owner Kev Super 6 on this forum too, or are you set on a Fury?

Tony, not really set, no. I had actually seen that Tiger on Pistonheads, and it's one of my favourites because of the colour scheme. I really like that orange and black combination. Pretty awesome specification as well, but unfortunately also above my budget. Just a bit, though... Oh well, who knows?
