Does anyone have any experience of a 208 Turbo, or GTB/GTS Turbo? Anecdotally, it's a bit of a dog, but I wondered if anyone has first-hand experience and might be able to elaborate or otherwise.

That's what I'd read, although horsepower isn't that far from a 'proper' 308. I know that power delivery is more important than outright power, which is really why I was asking. Is it a very different proposition?

Is a thread on here somewhere about the car / cars, think was an italian import from memory.
Again from memory think walkersport involved somewhere maybe worth a call.

Thank you. Inexplicably, it never occurred to me to use PH search...

I like the idea of one, but given it's LHD only, if the performance is a bit of a let down, then I'll always think of it as an understandably cheap Ferrari, rather than an unusual and worthwhile b-road car
