Post by danda » Sun Aug 16, 2015 8:59 pm

This car is so much fun ,I mean laughing out loud driving .
It's got a hybrid turbo ,FM Intercooler and big brembos ....210 bhp and 270 lbs torque in a car that weighs 800 kilos .
Totally different than the B3S nearly 100 bhp less but the same torque ....
Love it.

Yes, a very quick car indeed. We were out in the E30 M3 a few months ago and one of them stuck to our back bumper like glue. We just could not shake him off. There were four people in that little car and only two in ours :oops:

Not sure. I could only see the front Arbarth badge. Looked like a 500 to me.
