Might have been a mate of mine, but without more i cant be sure, or cant think why he would be in castleton although i know he does go for some random drives with it. What color wheels did it have?

Cool! It had standard frst wheels, dump valve, 4" outwardly rolled exhaust, mud flaps and looked immaculate! Is it his?

Ay up, yeh im pretty local, live in matlock aswell as my mate and also very good mates with oli meradith and Norris Motorsport lads. Quite a few NMS cars in matlock, theres obviously oli's 400+BHP Escort S1 RS turbo (as in photo) http://www.andygilbertphotography.co.uk/index.php?showimage=1, theres my very good mates 260BHP NMS built escort, scott (black fiesta RS turbo) that is built for nearly 300BHP, another mate and his 300BHP NMS built escort RS and my fiesta in the sig, thats currently being built by NMS, was going for 300BHP but as the block i have is a very good one i dont want to run the risk of cracking it so hoping to run it at a safe 250 - 270. All still CVH's too and 3 of us live on the same street so if your ever heading over this way you will have to let us know.

Do plenty of track days too aswell 2 trips to the ring a year, thats a must! :P

We also have our own RS turbo'd speed boat, boat refurbished by us all and engine built by NMS, full story here: http://www.sportsboat.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2076

Cheers
