Welcome to joerichards = Joe Richards

Joe has competed in PCT's and 4 WD trials in the past. He has decided to have go at Classic Trialling and will be looking for a car.

Bowler Nemesis EXR

From an off-hand comment at work, I happened upon this, the Bowler Nemesis EXR.

Surfing around Bowler's site it turns out this is some form of "civilised" version of their rally-raid car.

Interestingly though, the link for engine info takes you out to Jaguar's engine tech-info website.

So what we have here is a high ground clearance chassis, with good suspension, sump guards and apparently designed to be fitted with a 6-speed manual front-engine, rear-drive power train.

The question is, would it be in class 7 or class 8?
