My Mk 8 Davrian
Posted: Wed May 03, 2017 11:16 pm
Hello All.
This is my first post to the list, so I thought I should "check in".
My Davrian Is a Mk 8, registration BPG221Y, number DF/8/034/TVF.
I built the car in 82-83, registering it 12/5/83.
Originally it had a Ford Kent 1600 ( XR2 ) 1600, with 4 speed Escort / Fiesta gearbox.
It was my daily driver, and I raced it in the 750 MC kit car series in 83 and 85.
I re built it fitting a 1600 XR2 block engine toped with a Lotus twin cam cylinder head and a 5 speed gearbox.
I have been using it on and off ever since.. drive it for a few months, think I can improve xxxx.. it will only take a couple of weeks...
two years later it's back on the road.
Currently it's waiting for me to have spare cash for tax and mot test, hopping to tax it for the summer.
Regards all Jonathan
