Well done on the purchase. 478 hp must be quite a drive. I am still running the usual 380.

Look forward to future updates.

498 hp in the end, so yes definitely moves well! Feels nice and factory smooth though, not at all like tuned cars I've known of times past.

John gave me a YouTube name to search for but only very short clips. Do you have any longer bits of footage? I'd love to know how it compares to other cars speed wise. I'm finding it quite difficult to judge how it might fare in grand scheme of things.

Great to see back in the fold and that its still producing the goods , it was tuned by Peter Link himself from MTM and 498bhp is pretty good considering it was deemed to be 512 bhp at the time it was done, it must be very scary on standard brakes, i had MoVits all around and think i was the 1st to get them done, we went down to Guido at MoVit after the 1st challenge in 2002, i still miss the car and the great time and fun of the community at that time. Happy days :nodder:

If this were lower mileage, I'd have bought it already.

Which is yours? The one in the add claims to be 600 BHP, is yours 600 BHP too? Any more info?

i doubt it very much if it is 600bhp its difficult to achieve that figure without FMIC fitted also the gear box would have to has very serious work done :beerchug:
