... not actually an X1/9 spotted but the engine rather! - on page 90 there is a comprehensive 6-page write-up on the X1/9 engine. Just bought my copy and am off to digest the article now. :idea:

Just picked this up.

Looks to be a good, well written article by someone who knows their stuff - go get a copy folks!

Well spotted Jim, I have my copy after checking every news agent in Northamptonshire...... :D :D :D :D

Especially interesting as my engine is now out of my VS and the strip and build will begin after the hangover clears on Sunday....mmm maybe Monday...

I hope mine looks half as good as this and I will be very happy :lol:

Nice one Jim, just picked up a copy.
Looking at what is coming next month I notice it says "130BHP X1/9"

Smoking kills...But only love (and X1/9s) can break your heart.

Good article. You guys are costing me a fortune on glossy mags. It's good to se the X1/9 and engine are getting coverage at last. JimX1/9 your lime classic gets another viewing I see :)

Hehe, no worries guys! - and if I'm not mistaken Valler's X1/9 is going to be in Retro Cars next month too!

Yeah Grimy - I just noticed the pic of my car in the mag! and they have used it on the flyers for subscriptions too!

As for the X1/9 duelling with the Panda, thats Julian Browns Dallara Uno Turbo powered X1/9.....
