Re: Fastest cars in your road?

And there's T16Dave's Rover 45 which is dented on most panels, rusted as a result, covered in bird crap and is very loud in a bad way as he's running it on used engine oil and chip fat... sounds properly horrible and really stinks. Doesn't sound horrible any more, doesn't sound like someone is tryi...

Re: Rover Coupe Turbo F.D.H - Frequently Asked Questions

I would love to know the history of my car, she still has jap stickers under bonnet and behind sun visor. When I bought it, it had the flare in the footwell! Leather with red piping, aricon etc.

Mine isn't an FDH it is an NGP (Norwich)

Re: Long Time no see....

Around 350, as I didn't want to break it.

I haven't used her since my boy was born :o

Maximum she got to was about 420 without nitrous.

To be honest I prefer the Diesel S-Type, 265bhp 421lbft - 55 to 60mpg on motorway, what more does a man need!

That is the problem, the gearbox usually lasts two runs, and it isn't even a rover gearbox!

Re: Rover 1/4 Mile times

It amazes me that people don't know about that car... and that is an old time, I'm sure it is just off being in the 9s now

It was run on dynopacks and they recorded 900lbft of torque and shutdown so peak power, at last asking is unknown.

Re: Long Time no see....

Still got the Rover, although at the moment she is sat in the garage as I just don't have the time to use her, which is a shame. She is road worthy, just needs an MOT and time to use it :) So what has changed on here then? Anything exciting happened in the last 2 years? play spot the rover... http:/...

Re: Contract Upgrade Time

STOP N96 is poor compared to N95, N96 is slower and lacks hardware video acceleration. C905 is riddled with problems, even more so than the k850i!
