£10,000 thats a bargain,considering the only way to buy one new is to get tiger to build you one for £47'000

Hehe..

Weak points on the Z100 seem to be transfer box and letting Tiff drive it.

Transfer box on this car has been in/out of GB engineering over the years for checks etc and appears to have reached the brink of reliability - I know Simon hasn't had the thing out in 2 years and he's pretty sharp on pulling apart anything that's not quite mechanically correct.
