Cam belt hit pieces of broken cover after accident and bent all 8 valves.
Gearbox developed whine which was not cured by clutch change (suspected release bearing)
Inertia switch plug blades weak causing car to cut out intermittently.
Very quick car for its size and out shines any equivalent car of the day.
Running costs not helped by small fuel tank.
