A nice looking motor.

Wish I could afford it (and to run it).

Just one question, how does he achieve 35+mpg with such a highly tuned motor?
Very nice motor regardless.

I bet it'd only do 35mpg if you drove it down the motorway at 55, behind a lorry.

Breaks my heart when I see an 850R/V70R/S70R I want (back in the market) then I switch to the interior picture and it's that nasty dash and beige seats.

Sigh.
