True Golf GTIs are boring, true, but what I was saying is that Golf push out far more BPH then 8.2 liter monstrocity - that's why our climate is now going to hell!

Such cars should be banned.

There's so much so wrong in your last couple of posts, Alex old chap... but I can't be arsed to comment...

And who's gonna look at you in yet another VW Clitoris? It's not about the numbers it's about the style. You can't look pimp in a GTI, no matter how hard you try

Exactly. The PVPPS* coefficient on a seventies Caddy is incredible. You can get one of those for two and a half grand.
Mine was £800, but needed a respray.

Sh1te then - less than Golf GTI does from 2 liters, and it weights probably 2 times less. What was the 0-60mph on that aweful piece of junk?

It's beautiful, not a piece of junk.
As for 0-60, I don't know and I don't care. The speedo went up to 100 mph, though.
The car was extremely good at going at 60mph in a straight line, which is exactly what it was designed to do...

8.2 litre engine. Crushed Dralon upholstery, foot-rests, 8 track player, three-point turns with one finger on the steering-wheel, 12 mpg. etc etc etc

Mmmmm, Nothing says Pimp like Crushed Draylon....

[Fleetwood]

The engine put out 190bhp@3600 rpm

8.2 litre engine.

Yes and this monstrocity ought to be extremely heavy and also produce very little BPH, probably less than Evo.

That is a pimpmobile and I like it.

Nothing at all. I named myself after a Cadillac Fleetwood that I used to own.
