Rwd, smooth v6, super build quality, I'd have one over a contemporary BMW or Merc convertible any day of the week. biggbn said:

It's well known that the Aussies had Holdens and Fords to make us jealous, but I had no Idea that Mitsubishi had their own Aussie arm as well that made some unique and special models for their local market.
Take the Mitsubishi Magna Ralliart, 241BHP V6 FWD with a helical LSD. I'd give up both of my Kidneys to have one
Makes a difference to the usual EVO that one thinks of when thinking of fast Mitsubishis. The RVR is another as well

Ooooo that's very cool! Love the fact they slapped the Evo 5/6 wing on there!Take the Mitsubishi Magna Ralliart, 241BHP V6 FWD with a helical LSD. I'd give up both of my Kidneys to have one

I'm in Aus and there's a few Chinese electric cars I wasn't familiar with. Favourite name is certainly the Build Your Dreams but it looks like you can get them in the UK as of last month.
Well, karma is a bh. My mum is convinced she needs to sell her VW Golf after it shat it's DCT gearbox. She's also convinced she needs an electric car so it sounds like she's getting a BYD Seal. I don't totally hate it, they get OK reviews and 6 year car / 8 year battery warranty sounds.Now I just need to talk her round to the blue interior. "nah mum, great for resale"

This was news to me…
Apparently during the last few months of production in 1977, Ford Cologne fitted about 1000 Mk I Granadas with the new 2.8 fuel injected V6 engine that would replace the old Essex 3.0 unit in the new Mk II. They came in the form of a 2.8i S, LS, GLS, and Ghia S shown here. The one shown here is one of around a 100 examples made.
wow just wow!

Just walked past BYD's Mayfair showroom. The car looks ok, quite premium from the outside. I didn't bother to go in for a closer look though.Now I just need to talk her round to the blue interior. "nah mum, great for resale"

I really enjoyed my saab and volvo droptops, but for me this and the even more revilled sc430 are ultimate affordable open air waft!!
We all have different experiences, but the SC430 I drove (about 5 years old, bog standard, 40k miles) rode like it had steel rods for dampers. Wafting wasn't really possible unless you kept below about 10mph.paddycam said:
