I think that's one of the problems with this site, many of the posters are not really petrolheads, they are just exclusively Subaru fans and think all other cars like Saabs (and AMGs obviously) are complete crap in comparison.

I am a member on one of the Merc forums and Scoobs are held in very high regard on there by the majority of posters as are many other cars.

Why go through all the bother of the mid engine and Carbon fiber chassis and only give it 230BHP though. A bit of a waste TBF.

That was a much better episode, what the 1st should have been! That macca was epic, but the the Alfa was lovely too, and I want one of those quad bikes!! (Seen it before on the gadget show tho)

Agreed but why? They can make it just as fast with a petrol motor so why all the batteries? Seems pointless to me,and did I hear it only has 6 miles on electric power? Awesome looking car and great technology but what is the gain?
