You'd probably be forgiven if you shat yourself when that stonking heap rolled up outside
I think Monsieur Puggy would like holes in his windows to poke things out of but maybe another time...

YPG?
I watched that with the sound off (wife watching garbage again), are they bullet holes in the windows or has someone gone around it with an ice pick for that "riddled with bullet holes" look?

V16 doesn't have to mean massive capacity, after all the V16 BRM was 1500 cc.
Wouldn't bet on it though.

Engine capacities were immense at one point but I think they'd started to calm down by that point, it's probably only about 7 litres.

Re: Anyone fancy a drive by?
It's just a sop to the liberals, slap the word "Eco" in there somewhere and they get to feel like they're actually doing something for the environment and don't have to worry about it any more
Who will buy my Ecogun?
Nice rust on the wing, usually means the chassis is not far behind it either...

Re: Anyone fancy a drive by?
Indeed, adding the word 'ECO' to a 5.0 V8 must score brownie points just for trying? 
1980's ruled for the high street names, if you wanted to waft about in a specially-commissioned Granny then one could. I would think that thing was on a diet of Meat Pies and given the extra weight and the pretty feeble 160? bhp from that injin it probably would crawl about rather than waft nicely.
