I think I showed you guys the 205 V12 a while back?

Bang one of them in my 306 and that'll be my choice for the covert car thread!
What power is it running at? _________________

| If it's 3.9 litres, I'd expect more than 300 bhp - more like 500 at a guess. |

Modified 2wd 'Phil's Car' - kitcar type thing, loads of 'em about over there, think that one is on a 350Z engine.
As you can hear, the 205 loses half its cylinders near the end though - coil fault from the heat buildup. _________________

So it's based on the VW engine then
It's a very quick car and sounds brilliant. _________________

Well, that's one thing about spectating at the rallyes TT venues - all the cars are different and they all sound different too, the variety is great.
Plus, you get to tell her indoors you're taking her to France for the weekend... _________________

Well if anyone has a spare weekend - last weekend in November is the Plaines et Vallees rally - should be 100 cars running, including yours truly. _________________
