That's a cheap Lamborghini engine if you get it for the guide price.

Magnum was available as 2-door and 4-door saloon, estate and coupe, Firenza (in this country) was only 2-door coupe. Coupe could have been Firenza, Magnum or Viva.

Very nearly my first car. A bright yellow
1800 Magnum with a black vinyl roof. A good friend had a Droopsnoot

Personally, I'd rather have a genuine classic with advanced engineering - maybe a Citroen BX...
