That would have some go! :D
-
engine being straight 6, seems suitable for turbo ::)
-
Suitable for twin turbos Cem.Its the engine they used in the Lotus Carlton. :y
-
That would have some go! :D
probably in a straight line despite (or is that inspite ???) of where the steering wheel is pointing ....... it does seem a lot of weight up front. Though I could never understand why there was a radiator mounting point further forward ??? ??? ???
I believe there have been various 24v Mantas too.
-
Like that , just up the road as well ::)
-
Pity about the bumpers though ???
-
Might look better in black. :-\............would be a hoot to drive though. :)

A bit of steer from the rear effect I reckon :D :y
-
That would cost me a fortune in rear tyres. Be loads of fun. Take one old bug eyed old farts car then give it 200 BHP. I don't fancy being the diff in my ownership.
-
If its the same rear axle/ diff unit as the Manta (which I would imagine it is) 200bhp wont cause it any problems. ;)
-
Ah the mk1! I had a dark blue one of these when I was 20. Not with a 3.0 lump of course ;D
Seem to remember I loved the gear stick on them cars, kind of low and long if memory serves

True, but it would be a great sleeper 8)

My Dad had three basic spec 1.6 mk1 Cavaliers,one after the other,for some unfathomable reason. I kept trying to talk him in to buying a 2 litre model with higher trim spec etc. but he just kept changing them for one exactly the same apart from the colour. ::)
