And I bet it still won't keep up with my AW11 S/C which is 22 years old, only has a 1.6 lt engine and does 7.2 lt per 100km with the A/C on. Go the oldies!

SC the 86 and it'll soon change that... ;)

The car is clearly under-tyred on purpose. Just about every review I've read on this car says it's easy to slide, lack of power, doesn't need the power, chassis can take alot more than what it's set up for from the factory etc etc. I'd love to know what it would drive like with a set of decent sized wheels and proper rubber on it. I doubt the "fun" factor would be there. The chassis would cope and it would grip fine but then your just longing for that extra oomph down the straights instead of just trying to maintain momentum through corners.
 
Seeing alot more on the roads now too.

Apologies. The "noses" was mine. The other was a quote.
 
Its just hard sometimes to get the hang of the quotes thing when you are replying quickly.
