Looks really cool, those Rover 3500 only had 160bhp so is it actually any faster? But the forward motion would be, for me, would be secondary to my feeling of impending doom when driving a nearly 40 year old Easter Bloc budget car with a Rover V8 stuff where there was a little four cylinder, the RV8 isnt that heavy but I am guessing its heavier than the Skoda one with the new gearbox.
Get that wrong on a wet road its like driving lump hammer from the wooden end, its probably better than you expect, right until you get cocky and it bites.

Still, bet it is a car you could soon find out what lift oversteer is in if you werent all that sure

Stolen from the Beetle Spotted thread.Sure, if you look hard enough you'll notice the wider tyres and full roll cage but at first glance it really doesn't appear too far from stock. Even the standard exhausts have been kept, although I don't believe they're still functional. The squirm under full throttle though...
