    Just about everything was! As Clarkson said, it was foggy and greasy. It's supposed to lap the Nurburgring quicker than the FRS, so I can't imagine it's as slow as that lap time suggests

    I think that the T5 engine in a Volvo produces 250BHP....they are getting torqe steer at 220!....Trophy v ST would be interesting, although in fairness many of the 10 yr old Williams on here can match 6.5 and 150!

    I would be more interested in it if I thought it really would beat a Williams point to point over the truly twisty stuff...if not spend 4K and save 16
