There is a great photo of the Greens Tuff XE doing a powerslide down the main straight at Lakeside in the rain. I think it was a publicity shot. Can anyone advise if it's possible to locate this photo somewhere?
I had it on the wall of a house I sold and forgot to take it with me. |

19"s on the back, I remember the commentators discussing them when they appeared.
The car didn't always look so sharp...

They were massive though and the flares were fitted just to fit the tyres.

I asked them nicely last time I was there if we can peek under the bonnet.
"No probs" was the response. Felt pretty lucky.

Im pretty sure they were 19x12 inch rims on the back. Well what ever they were they set off the total look of the car. Its such a beautiful machine.
