Had a couple of these turbo versions years ago. Always wanted a t-bar one though with the revised rounder rear lights and one piece spoiler..

A nice standard one is a very rare thing these days.

To be honest they can be pretty quick, A mate of mine had an import turbo from Japan running 350bhp...apparantly one of the midnight club cars, It was very quick but had crap brakes and he managed to do a 360 through a set of lights in it once

You know modding aint my thing. That car is near 100% standard, very rare, and a basis to be almost immaculate.
