Flans car is a beast. J3ned is taking the engine out of his and putting it in a Seat Ibiza or sometihng though I think as he was having too many problems with torque steer, also his clio is matt black now rather than orange.

any engine is reliable as long as its

1. constructed properly
2. sufficiently cooled
3. correctly fueled
4. doesn't use substandard parts.
