[quote][i]Originally posted by SVM 286[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by tom_simes[/i] So do you own a 260 Jim? What about the 380, or was that only ever a concept car? [/quote] Yes I do Tom. :) And the 380 was the supercharged version of the car and was in the process of all the pre production testing and approval/legislation and development work when MG Rover was murdered, so the car was killed off just prior to it's birth. A bit like shooting an 8.5 month pregnant woman in the head realy. :( There is at least one pre-production car in existence, but it is purely a development mule, and as such, not road legal to my knowledge. There was one auctioned off a while back, and this may well have been the same car. The good news is that all 260 owners with 6k to spare can have 405 bhp and 420 lb ft by having the good people at Dreadnought carry out one of their supercharger conversions, thus exceeding what the 380 would have been. It's a beautiful conversion and looks completely factory, and I plan to have one done in about 5 years when the car's paid for and i've saved up enough dough. You can have about 600 bhp and lb ft, but that would require even bigger brakes, a stronger transmission and preferably wider wheels and tyres, which would need body mods. [/quote]
