Thanks, I don't think I've ever been called that before!

But it's a no brainer - who would choose a 5-pot Turbo with FWD over an S54 and RWD?

Have you ever heard one. A straight 5 does make an intoxicating noise.

Quite different from the howling banshee cry of the S54. Dare I say mine with it's Supersprint exhaust sounded better..

had a yellow one many moons ago and loved it, no trouble with it either over 3 years other than a knackered aircon system

There is still a yellow 20vt running around in this neck of the woods. Little bumble bee.

Had a fiat coupe 20v turbo in sprint blue, as my daily, a few years back, was such a great car, really quick and great fun,build quality felt abit flimsy compared to the germans, but never had a single problem with it other than routine maintenance, used to go to a really good specialist in Basildon, Roger was the guys name, he specialised in them.

The sound from the 5 cylinder never stoped amusing me! It used to scare the s##t out of pedestrians on the street as the air box was right over to the near side and would really roar when the turbo kicked in

Will dig some pics out.

Here you go, sorry for the quality there pictures of pictures, from my car photo album. One of the pics is From a trip to Santa pod where she ran a 14 sec 1/4! not bad for a standard car. You can also see from the engine how far over to the n/s the air box is!

Almost perfect, complete with sunroof. Just missing the Tan interior of mine.
