    That SAAB looks like it has gone 15 rounds with the Ugly Stick.

    I don't doubt it will shift though when it finally gets moving.
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    Something about that makes me think he secretly wanted a volkswagen. It's good though.

    Yeah, I like the way they haven't overly messed with the p*ss poor lines of the original! :lol:

    Love they've made all the mods and still packaged it around the original interier. Shows some class.

    Awaiting the first quarter times with interest. 8)

    Impressive, but it's a bit like giving your great Gran a breast enlargement for her birthday.

    And yet despite all that work, the soulless heart of a Vauxhall Vectra still remains underneath. :shock:

    What goes out of that engine? If it's a flame, wouldn't it burn the rear tire?

    these are questions i thought of as the exhaust temperature reaching 750degC at full thrust output then he is going to need some heat sheild on that.

    There is no flame as the Adour mk151 engine (used here) doesnt have reheat like the Mk 104 used in Jaguar aircraft

    Where is he going to keep the fuel it requires 0.81(lb/hr/lbf)

    At full thrust this will provide 23.5kN of thrust! so the next ques tion is how does he stay attached to the bike?

    Can't find the panda film, only fiat forum pics and info. At one point it was up to 200bhp.

    Seeing as the sprogs can no longer fit in the Panda, I'm now considering a strealth 160bhp Skoda Fabia estate.....,

    Well it might go like run No.1 with a bit of a wobble or even 206mph from a V twin as in the second run.
