The Camaro Club (UK)

Thought I would kick this one off

I think we may have had this listed before but time for an update?

My MG ZT-T CDTi auto with serious remap'd BMW Diesel 2.0 now nearer 180 bhp and still 40 mpg- owned since new in 2004 and now with 86k miles with no faults- currently running on winter tyres on those "granny 15 Rover wheels". Sprang a fairly serious fuel leak yesterday- so dropped off at local garage today.

And the 2010 Nissan Tank Pathfinder recently bought- we have done 56k in only 2 years in this! These do most of the daily tripping between countries! (Isle of Man , Highlands of Scotland , England and formally France as well)



Our daily drivers seem so boring now- but it wasn't always thus:

between 1994 and 2004 when I bought the MGZT-T my daily driver was my 1991 Hartge H26 (still owned- recommissioned last year after being laid up in my barn)

"Main Force Patrol we,re out of the game "

Transit 115 splitter mess van (re-mapped of course ), with few bonus bits, for workie stuff and big jobs.

BMW E61 530d for other stuff, shopping, smaller work stuff and big distances.



My most interesting daily so far though was the jap import Mitsubishi VR4 legnum of which I had 2 over a 5 year period (but fuel cost were crazy for the mileage I was doing, so had to get a diesel ) Was fun though - twin turbo 2.5 V6 with 280+ bhp, 4 wheel drive, Evo suspension and brakes. Did quite a few hoons and track days in this car and it was great..
First black one


2nd white one - pic not mime, but looked exactly the same


Flogging the Bimmer soon though - smaller fast VAG diesel maybe.. (Golf TDI GT, Seat FR, Re-mapped A3 etc.. )

We use this.....not often.


And drive this to hell and back....unbreakable.

Hartge starred in this year's Manx Classic after ECU blew on the Alpina



still going strong after all these years!

I should probably update everyone with our 2013 Manx Classic Report (even if it did not feature any Camaros?)
