A work colleague from many years ago had one of these series one cars.
Took me for a ride in it round the block.
Bloody hell, did it shift.
Scared the proverbial shyte out of me with it, but that might have been the dodgy overtake.....

He eventually wrecked it after taking it for a run along pendine sands is it? got airborne and did some terminal damage to various aspects of the suspension and shell...Muppet.
Its a real pity theres not that many of them around any longer. I miss the 80's cars of that nature.
