there was a small show at the next village to me Scotter so i let the wife take my cortina and i took the beta for a run then called here, slight hesitation on low revs but runs well when you keep it buzzing.no major problem will investigate though.

White car looks very good indeed, and the Cortina isn't too shoddy either!
Low rev hesitation shouldn't be a concern cos you should always keep the revs up and drive it like you stole it!
By the way, are those Dunlop alloys on tme 'Tina?

i guess low revs is just somewhere you pass through on your way from stop to flat out !

My spyder runs well throughout the rev range, but we're happiest over 4k and as regards age, I was born in the very early 60's, in fact I only just missed the 50's so I've earned the right to press "play" and sod them if they can't take a joke!
