The purpose of this page, is to provide information on the car I own (or owned).
This is so that if you find this page, and you need to know exactly what products to buy for it, the information is already here for you. If you stumble across this page searching for information on your car. It probably will be similar if not the same. I have populated some information using the info from the Wikipedia Page (Mainly engine / Vehicle data), the rest is my own compilation
If I have made any significant upgrades (such as changing factory parts to upgraded models - I will include the original and revised figures)
