Yes mate, its an Epia M, 1 ghz, I've found one little problem, i'm hoping the dvd-rom drive just needs a lens cleaner put through it as it's playing back from CD's ok but not always recognising DVD's (bearing in mind it came from a laptop that had a cola bath
)

It's a Rover 800 Vitesse Turbo, happily running about 12psi boost (not bad for a 2L 16V lump) and putting out about 220BHP at the wheels, here's a piccy:
A bit of an old dog (K plate 1993) but these cost about £30k from new and they have really lush leather interiors (mine's got black split leather Recaro's as a factory-fit). Needs a lot of work done still before i can get good times on the 1/4 mile but i've got plans to have the ECU fiddled a bit as i got a boost cut-off that stops me running over 12psi, when i got that removed 250BHP+ should be achievable
