Lovely! Very clean in grey and the styling heritage is clearly Clio V6. Best tuning effort in ages.

Exactly my thought. Could have just put the engine from the clip cup in there. No doubt its still a little rocket, but could have been so much more!

A stock Mini John Cooper Works puts out 208hp and looks a HELL of a Lot Better...

Lazy V8 is lazy..! A 4-pot 1,6 turbo can do better these days. I would LOVE to see some manufacturer make a small displacement (1,8-2,0 liters) straight-six with or without a turbocharger.

I don't like it. The bodykit looks made of cardboard painted in undercoat and fitting a Rover V8 in 2009 is about 15 years behind the trend.
That's a pretty poor effort as a showcase car.

this is stupid.. rebuilding the whole car and then putting a v8 that produces only 200bhp. Some 1.6l turbo in the front without that stupid bodykit would do the same... at a fraction of the cost.

I agree... I remember that Toyota made something similar with the aygo, but, ironicly, it looked and sound much much better than this...

The four cylinders are putting out alot more power then that
the VW W12 makes more sense then this, that car had the power and all of the right things to it

I like the design exercise but I see lots of aerodynamical flows. Too bad a weak engine was used along the build up.
