Title: Purvis Eureka S4
Post by: CyCo on Saturday, 28 March, 2009, 01:43:23 PM
Ok, how many people saw this on the old forums? I was just looking through them for something, and found this piece of gold.

I've jokingly called mine an S4 numerous times... Maybe it is one??

Paul showed us that at the last meet Cyc-baby.
                                                                  You are chugging the wine...

Hang on, if S stands for Subaru, does that mean I've got an N4?  Mary and Dragan have an M2? I wonder what Allan was thinking?

Wouldn't that be  M2?

Ok, maybe I was drinking the wine (which is strange, I don't like wine, I'd rather have vinegar), but I really don't remember seeing that before.

Alan Purvis called the F4 that because he put in a Ford 4 cylinder, right? At least that's what I always understood. So if he did start putting in Scooby boxer motors in them, why not follow suit and call them S4s?

OOps!
         Must've chugged a bottle myself! Yes, you both are correct. I meant N4 and M2. You know what I meant!

Now that could really confuse things further. Was that Allan's or Colleen's Advert? Colleen really loved subi engines.
We could have N4's, F4's, M2's, S4's, H4's, and most likley a "something"6 out there. What about the dak dak's? what are they to be refered to as? VW4"s?
Where's the wine? No wonder Reek owners are driven to drink! ???

The way i see it, it stops being a PL30 when it gets a flat rear deck, and then it becomes an F4 and an F4 it is! reguardless of what is pushing it.

I guessing a little, but I think that this is from the guys that took over from Colleen and then she re-possessed. They also did the display car with the lift up rear. The giveaway is the company name. They had some excellent ideas..a pity it wasn't to be....
Alloy chassis, mid mounted motors....we've all had these discussions
