Had me punto rr there. It made 172 bhp with 150 lb/ft of torque.
On the 2 previous and 1 later occasion it made 160 bhp and 180 lb/ft, with in a couple of bhp each way.
cheers

Apparently Mike calibrates the rollers himself ???!!!???
So yes I agree you could get variations but isn't that true of every RR in the country, they're only as good as the people who operate them.
170bhp in a punto is not to be sniffed at, good going chappy
