R (OVER)

Yeah looks pap but 200bhp standard with less transmission loss can give a standard 4x4 some trouble.

I had the same engine in a 220GSi with probably around 215bhp and that more than pissed off a standard escort cossie.

 

I realy like them. Shame he has boyscouted it up with the bling wheels etc. They are cool standard cars.

Shame its a rover though

to be honest, it's the coupe rather than the normal 4/5 door so probably worth the money as rarity factor

 

true barryboy!! its the only sales ploy he could come up with,only the naive will bite,

 

I wouldn't be so sure. You can make Rover Turbos very quick with not much effort. Please see below for an example (bloke is someone i met when i had a Rover 220GTI turbo). His car is 270bhp per tonne but weighs more than a tonne. Look at his 1/4mile time at bottom of sig;

Obviously the 820 advertised would weigh more but you get the picture......... Shocked me to be honest!
