If its the same engine as in the 620 its nearly 200 brake.

820ti



620ti or possible called 600ti - proper sleeper

The rover vittesse was a 2.0 turbo with about 200bhp. They were actually really quick being such a big car.

we used to own a 620TI for 5 years, seriously under-rated car
yes, it shares the same engine as the 820TI and 220 tomcat

t-series engine produces 210bhp and 240n/m torque IIRC


great car, proper sleeper

Sd1 old school

The 620ti's don't seem to be that quick tho, not slow but nothing suprising imo.
