Certainly was 172mph top end apparently :cool: Super cool car! Mick The figures are etched on my brain (easy to recall ;)). Back in the day, they were mental numbers (for a, ahem, 'repmobile saloon' ;)). There was an immaculate example often parked up in Braintree town centre, when I used to take the post to the PO, after work. Stunning. |
OP, what's the real-world, on-road driving experience like? Is it really tail-happy when the boost kicks in, for example?

Vauxhall never claimed a top speed for it. It was said the Lotus Carlton was over geared in fifth never mind sixth. Sixth geared at a lofty 44 mph/1000rpm! |
Like my old Triumph Spitfire 1500... With overdrive for 3rd and 4th. :D

I had you down as a young whippersnapper for some reason. :D You're obviously of a better vintage. |
