the answer about the bhp : 200+  :-/

no need for a 3.8 , 3.0 will do the job..

Yep. 3.2 any day. That's a plodding old 12v pushrod lump that hates to rev. 200 BHP would be a bit optimistic I'd say (and I've driven one of those engines across Canada).

200bhp from a 3.8?

Pretty pish performance wise, but I would expect pretty unburstable, perfect for towing.

Why does it look so bad though?
Front end - ugly
Back end - terribly sorry old boy, I am a little tired
Interior -  horrible nasty plastic.

Gimme an 8v edition s anyday.
