I've had my DC 5 five years. Had a DC 2 before that for six years. I'm known locally as the silver haired boy racer. Coming up 72 later this year. Lol

They're made of metal. Bit stronger than you're ordinary ones.

The DC5 only weighs 80kg more than a JDM '98 spec DC2. I think this is usually forgotten.

Dc5 has 183.9 bhp per tonne whereas the
Dc2 has 179.1 bhp per tonne

and then there's the extra torque.

They seem to tick a lot of boxes so if I do change cars its likely to be to a 5. Reason I want one with mods is because my dc2 is standard and I want a modded car for a change.

Never driven one and Id probably have to travel a long way to do so

Where in Cumbria are you from?

I spent a bit of time up there due to work. If the sun's out, I sometimes take the DC5. If your close, feel free to have a look around.

Workington eh, I've stayed in the Washington Central a few times due to work but it's been a while.

Majority of the time when I'm up, I stay in Seascale which is a bit of a trek from Workington. I do have something in September in ennerdale though.
