Too subtle

As much as it's awesome and as much as anyone would want it......it'll end up killing the buyer.

Which is still awesome

Solaris · 27 Nov 2007 at 11:41

I love it......

I'd die within a minute if i tried to drive it though.

For some reason i am recently getting hard for these : http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/303161.htm

I simply adore the sagaris, pure red blooded male hormone produced car.

Must have one...

It'll be a great minute though

This doesnt interest me as much as a Peugeot 106.

To the un-initiated, forward motion will largely be sideways

DreXeL · 27 Nov 2007 at 12:02

So stupid, so ugly, so ******* awesome. I want.

Registered W112 BHG, this car was fitted with what are called the "mild" cams and conservative ECU mapping which reduced the power to a mere 880 bhp.

What a beast.

Stonedofmoo · 27 Nov 2007 at 12:22

What was the higher power output? Is it RWD? Can it go round corners?

Mr_Sukebe · 27 Nov 2007 at 12:23

I wonder how much more scary these are in real life than they are in GT4?

Stonedofmoo · 27 Nov 2007 at 12:27

1% more scary

GeX · 27 Nov 2007 at 12:27

pah, they've bunged £50k on what they've paid for it!

EddScott · 27 Nov 2007 at 12:51

The article in EVO magazine regarding the speed 12 was very amusing.

Before TVR defected, one of the owners drove W112BHG home just to see waht it would be like as an owner.

By the time he got the short distance home the decison NOT to put the car into production was made

Lethal, I believe, is an understatement.

Sone · 27 Nov 2007 at 13:16

i am suprised this doesent sell easier, a one off car with lots of media attention for under £200k. If i was silly rich i would just stick it in the garage as a show piece

Im pretty sure its RWD

And it can turn corners alright.

You just exit them backwards
