Default topgear 14/12 - 12-15-2003 , 02:26 AM






Actually remembered to record it... missed the last minute or so... did the
Nitrous make the MG do a good lap?

That's for a future date so you didn't miss anything.

I'm quite looking forward to that.. though I half expect the thing to be
shaking itself apart at top whack.. almost like scenes from some Star Trek
or another where they exceed maximum 'warp' and people are flying around the
deck and panels are exploding around them.

Still.. it is a lovely car to look at - I remember seeing one on display in
the MG Rover reception hall last Feb when I was doing some contract work
there and it was certainly worthy of a few droplets of drool.

Which is more than can be said for that hideous Porsche!

Good description of mine at 1.8bar of boost ;-)

The MG was a development mule that was still a good few months behind a
production model, so don't expect to see it with the full nitrous kit
for a good while yet...
