That is what I call scary 'sm11'

Hmm, it is not very expensive, I wonder what will taxes be when imported 'sm14'

WOAH! That's like the strected Accadyanne from hell! My GF's dad has an ACC...

Only 160bhp though, Nessy will eat that alive! Agreed on the sleeper value though - holy crap that's subtle!

cheers

Reminds me about this Ford Escort van which had an Oldsmobile V8 with supercharger behind the front seats... :P Gotta find some pics.

But it has Lotus suspension, from my opinion it is Rolls&Royce of all suspensions :D
