No snorkel visable would suggest bottom of airbox has been shut?! Putting a lid on it would kill it...!? Hmmmmmm... Just what is a ""XR8 sequential nostrill""??

XR8 Sequential was a show car that had an engineered sequential gearbox.

Cool. Thought that's what he meant originally, but then it made no sense as was not aware of the FORD XR8 SEQUENTIAL until now...

"""
Built back in 1997 to take some of the attention from GM's just released VT Commodore and to inspire a new generation of enthusiasts, the Sequential XR8 will not be new to most of you - but forms an important part of EL history as only one of very few prototypes to ever make it out of the factory.

- With most either meeting their fate with the crusher - and only a few retained by Ford labelled "never to be sold" - kept as museum pieces only. And yet it didn't make it out quite intact - but for that you'll have to read on!"""

Pity the link doesn't have pictures on it... But I am guessing he did actually mean XR8 SEQUENTIAL NOSTRIL!

Silly me!

Rightiho, enough out of me for another while. Cheers Madman.
