with martin's record of sorting cars out, everyone with blinkers who plainly doesn't know enough about them to appreciate what they are capable of, best be pulling over! I seem to recall people sniggering at a metro... until it pissed past them
Properly sorted out they make a very handy car (for FWD at least )

Friend of mine's doing the Castle Combe saloon championship with one, mere 1.8 K series power, and it's surprising! Joint leader of the championship at present
oh.. and it's yellow!
