Thumbs up Swapped my scoob in for this!
Only had her for a few days and not the best of locations (the uneven drive makes the suspension look a bit strange ) but here you go.

Lovely motor m8, best colour aswell!

Bet that V6 sounds beautiful on full wack! RWD must be a bit scary especially with all that power, lots of fun to be had. Enjoy

It sounds ACE! A nice rumble low down, rising to a scream at high revs!

LOADS of dry grip, a bit less int the wet tho!

Just make sure it isnt with Tony when he has one as a press car. I had that experience and the snap oversteer sent us spining through Brunchen. Not a good moment.

I have to say I found the handling to be awfull. It started with understeer and then with little or no warning went directly into snap oversteer which was pretty un-catchable. I think I would be quicker in a neutral handling CUP than a V6.
However the sound track was good and I love the look, just not the car for me I dont think.

Fantastic looking car fella! I'll bet that you get some "looks" when you're out and about? Be careful in the wet though.

Well for a unmodified "road biased" car I think it handles quite well. And i've never spun!

Maybe i'm just lucky, or not trying hard enough!
