it was around 500bhp iirc and was involved in a few top speed shoot outs in circa 2001 and was one of the fastest at the time doing approx 173mph?!

i remember that too!..i'm sure it was down to loose pulley or something like that and it died on the dyno. Also it had the biggest paint run on the tailgate, i'm sure its gone now....it had nice seats though,the original owner got a great deal on that interior when he brought it IIRC...i'm glad the Hocks are long gone now,i never liked those wheels,but hey...each to thier own and all that!

Awesome car

hocks look fine but fuck me he's clearly got to put his stamp on it as every cunt and their dog think they know everything about the car. Just look above for info re engine/interior/paint run! jesus!
