Gromit Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 How the hell do you hand crank start a 14.5 litre engine? Very big arms? Quote

neilwillis Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 Try hand cranking a 14.5 litre engine! You'd need the worlds strongest man to fire it up! Do Caterham know it's using their trade mark on the front? Bodywork looks very Caterhamesque too. Wait a minute.... It's a Mk 5 Robin Hood! Quote
hilux Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 When I was into classic cars (Rover 3.5 P5B coupe) I went to a rally and met a bloke with one. Trundled up and down a coupla times, you really feel exposed up there, anyway he was telling me that every now and again he used to take it up to its maximum of 60-70 mph however he could only do this very early on a weekend on an empty M11 near where he lived as he needed all three lanes to keep it straight Quote
