neil i remember the car doing this about 3 or 4 times while i owned it.
uncle (a retired motor engineer) was in the car one time and he said it was starter motor not disengaging quickly enuff, he said removing it and dropping a touch of light oil on the insides shud sort it (or just replace it if under warranty ;)) But he recommended leaving it and waiting to see if it went.
The starter on the car iirc was was new in or around may and as such will be under warranty. You may even be able to claim back labour costs.

the car had 17's fitted when i got it the ride was quite harsh
but i changed them for the 16" bbs and the ride was noticeably better.
car seemed to handle better too, turn in was sharper and less torque steer.

Hmm. Is the unichip actually mapped to the car at all? The more I hear the more I think the "better" solution is a EPROM remap, albeit with the obvious hassle of having to have it recooked each time a change is madeunichips r great, yes they r mapped to each individual car.
then when u add new mods u just have the map tweaked to suit.
I had them on both of my pulsars, i found that the cars ran better throughout the entire rev range, especially the midrange area.
(sorry to dig this out again, just going thru some older posts)

I'm not sure if it has any bearing on the case, but the vehicle was once in the hands of the French Foreign Legion, or some of its members. -
