Dodgey Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 I loved my 1600 4Age SE narrow but it was time for a change. I fancied a V8, and I wanted a powerful one. Not insane, but powerful. I've moved house and other things like winter got in the way. Anyhow, picked up my SEight on Thursday from another member. She's mental! I really can't get over how mad the acceleration is (and the traction, bearing in mind it doesn't have a LSD). Really mind blowing performance. She's a 4.3l V8 with Webbers. Recently dyno'd at 250Bhp with torque to match. Quote
Young Pretender Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 and ditto the video soundtrack please Quote
TableLeg Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Very nice. But we do need some videos of it driving Quote

Dodgey Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 I've also done a quick photophobia removing the stripes. They have to go I think. http://s97.photobucket.com/user/dodgey99/media/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_205221658202835_zpsd2e743b7.jpeg.html Quote

Dodgey Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 Photophobia lol. Should be photoshop. Rushing as the ferry sails out and my phone signal dies. Now I discover the ferry has free wifi! Stripes going. Heat gun and acetone waiting at home ;-) Quote
B.RAD Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Beautiful car, can't wait to hear the audio I like the centre stripe but agree that the arch and side stripes are a bit much. Love the red interior! Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I know some love it, but not a great pin stripe fan myself, looks great without. (I do like some stripes, but prefer the twin cobra/mustang style on a Westfield) Quote
funky munky Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Only thing missing Rog, is some racing numbers !!!! Speed series entrant next year ? Quote
