Different bonnet and that would be a very cool wee car.
Must be an absolute animal on the road, cool lookin dash as well.
Must have had a huge amount of work done to the gearbox to cope with that kind of power but theres nothing about any work done on it

Perhaps the max speed quoted is for the gear in which the car was tested?

Horsepower 280 - 460
Displacement 1.8L - 3.0L

yeah exactly, wont see that on a turbo that size on a 1600. plus if garret themselves quote max at 460, how a 1.6 see 480 from one?
excel and ms paint can make some pretty convincing rolling road looking printouts.

Bet that bonnet is working wonders letting hot air escape from a 1.6 Turbo pushing 482bhp.
