Default Long shot, I know. Can anyone lend me a car?

Here's the deal.
I have been accepted to take part in the D1 Grand Prix driver search this Thursday.
Those who take part and are deemed good enough will take part in the D1Grand Prix Exhibition which will take place at Silverstone next month.
Everything is ready, I have the time off work, the organisers have accepted my entry. But my car is not ready.
It is still in the garage getting its 2 way TRD LSD fitted. and its unlikely its going to be ready in time.
I know I have the ability to be competitive, I just dont have a car to compete in.
What I am looking for is for someone to lend me a RWD car with an LSD for the day. I realise the chances of anyone lending me one off here are minimal, but quite frankly, I am getting desperate.
I can promise I will not damage your car (did the entire 2004 UKD1 season without incident) and I will buy a new set of rear tyres to replace the rubber used.
Like I said, I'm not hopeful, but if you dont ask,you dont get. So I'm asking. If anyone has a RWD car with an LSD they dont mind lending me for Thursday then please get in touch.
Many thanks,
astraboy.

Try some of the rally schools around silverstone. One of them uses rear wheel drive skodas and may be prepared to hire you one for the day as he has loads of them.

You could borrow my VW Caddy van. It's FWD, but it has excellent rear visibility
