Mike B Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Not officially released in the UK so he told me.. 420 brake, 52K worth, very civilised, the bodyshell looks pretty stiff. It's just a few miles old, so He's not up for stretching it's legs for a while. LOL at the sat nav warning. Could this be the monaro's equal? not much room under there for a supercharger! Would like to have taken it out, but he's taking it steady for a while, and I don't blame him.. very well finished bit of kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike B Posted April 21, 2008 Author Share Posted April 21, 2008 no, he was late for his tea, lol and respectful of the running in instructions, but it's shamefully quiet for such an engine.. give it to me for a few weeks, I'll get it running properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GAZ 77 Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 It's a brand new Lexus colour containing very very very fine metallic known as zirrallic (not sure how you spell it) It contains alot of pearl and is the brightest white you'll find. In the sun it's awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

and1c Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 hate all those plastic engine covers Agreed! a very nice looking car though. A bonus of the engine covers is that once they are removed and a few bottles and bits relocated, there might be room for some Forced Induction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
