Tony, what have you done?!?!

Why didn't you just fix the Coupe????

I suppose a 420 GSi Sport Turbo is pretty stealth tho, 200bhp standard they are! :D

That coupe isn't my cup of tea mate.

Oooh, this car is so much fun. Seeing peoples faces when they cant keep up with a "grandad car" as it has already been called!

Looking for a 414 badge for the back and a checked blanket to put on the back shelf to complete the sleeper look!

200BHP isn't that impressive when its gotta drag a 4 door rot box around that weighs more than a small house:(

Any small car with a decent lump ( Rs Turbo Fiesta, XE Nova/Corsa, Tuned Clio, 5GT, Glanza) will eat that down the straights and round bends.

But who said it was the standard 200bhp Natty?

For all you know it could be kicking out a lot more... :P

Granted as standard it will struggle against some smaller cars, but 200 bhp isnt a bad place to start from when I start to turn the power up. I dont think it weighs that much more than the coupe to be honest and it handles way better in the corners because a) the suspension has been sorted and b) it is no where near as nose heavy.
